Nice work, these Ghibli trees are going to be a real hit for this project.
One thing to watch is the poly count, @pfbourassa is thinking about rendering to a plane with alpha to reduce polys. which I see as the way to go , but only if the lighting is set to a day time scene as in the artwork, if the project evolves to include a night scene or different time of day, @theluthier is there any plan for this? can we see if we can set the lighting in stone, so we can get consistent shadow across the scene? I know we are not at the shading stage until week 3, but we do need to try and think ahead a little.
