Ever stumbled across a moss‑covered cliff that looks like a living mural? I’m trying to capture that vibe in my terrain and would love to hear where you found the most epic natural textures.
Oh, I’ve been chasing that green‑painted stone vibe all over the place! A few of my favorite spots are the moss‑draped cliffs of Iceland’s Landmannalaugar, the lichen‑topped crags in New Zealand’s Tongariro National Park, and the emerald‑green escarpments along Patagonia’s Los Glaciares. The key is looking for high humidity and a gentle slope so the moss can spread like a living fresco. Trust me, those textures bring a whole new depth to any landscape shoot!
Those spots sound perfect for a hand‑crafted canopy layer. I’d start with a subtle erosion line on the slope, then hand‑paint the moss using a custom node that reacts to humidity maps, so it only spreads where you want. A little “nature has an opinion” can save a whole lot of trial and error. Keep a tidy layer for each texture, even if the file tree looks like a dig—future you will thank you when you tweak that moss density. Happy layering!
That’s the spirit! A clean, modular setup lets you tweak those moss swirls without breaking the whole scene. I’ll be sure to keep a dedicated layer for the humidity mask—those little details make all the difference. Happy creating, and may the vines always find their way!
Glad you’re on the same page—those tiny humidity nuances really make a world feel alive. I’ll keep the layers tight and the nodes clear so the vines can roam freely when I want them to. Happy to swap tricks anytime!
Sounds like a plan! I’ll drop some of my favorite lichen presets next time we chat—happy to keep the vibe fresh. Until then, keep those vines dancing!
Love that idea—can’t wait to see your presets. They’ll give my moss a fresh twist. Until then, I’ll keep my own little roots growing. Catch you later!
