My students and I have been working on creating trees and other plants in Blender. Attached is an image of our creations.
Very nice. Welcome to the forum!
Beautiful and KUDOs to you for taking them there....welcome to the forum.
Excellent work. Building trees by hand can be a painful tedious job.Hats off!

That render looks good. How were the trees done? Default only using Blender or some plugin addition?
Excellent render and trees.
They were modeled using the Sapling add-on for blender. The textures were made from photos taken of actual trees in the surrounding area. We modeled Post Oak, yaupon, live oak, and brown-eyed susans.
Sapling script...what an amazing piece of software. Blender is the program that just keeps giving.
Great image and excellent use of Blender. I am glad to see a nice thick trunk with good branch and leaf distribution. Many, many options with that feature. Are you displacing the trunk at all with displacement modifier in a vertex group, or using a bump-displace image? In other words....close-up please! :)
Another angle.
Ah, I like this latest image a lot, much more evocative than the first. It shows the models better too, which are pretty good overall. You could make even more complex trunk and branch geometry though, Terragen can handle it. :)

Agree with Oshyan and wow, fine veg modeling, have you considered sharing that brown eyed susan...a most important volunteer weed for prairie scenes and I don't have one, heh heh heh
