Just playing with Geocontrol 2 and terragen.. Figured I'd try to make a beach. still working on the shoreline, water and some sand dynes....

Very nice and calm - great sky.


Dune

Great lighting. You said you are still working on the shoreline; a hint (perhaps you planned it already); flatten out the windblown sand a little towards the water and make it darker. The lapping water will have erased the little sand 'dunes', and perhaps replaced by another kind of water displaced ridges/perlins...

Oh boy, this is beautiful. I agree with Dune. These would be nice improvements.

I echo the above, great start!

Already fantastic colours, clouds and sand! :D

Keep working on this one. It is already good. Just a bit more will make it great.

New version... Any ideas or suggestions?

The latest looks good - nice work. The atmosphere/clouds/lighting are very well done. I would suggest maybe you change the color of the beach and mountains (beach: yellowish/white - mountains: darker reddish). Also, you might try using the Painted shader to mask some irregularity into the shore foam. The beach sand where it meets the water could be a little darker.

It needs something in the foreground. The eye is drawn to the distance; the foreground seems barren.
