trellis with a vine

[J-G]

I have a rendering I would like to do with a trellis and some sort of vine growing up it. I haven't spent any time as of yet on rendering, but now I need to. What would be the best way to do this? Should I render the scene and then try to add the foliage in Photoshop, or are there families that someone knows of?

Thank you for any help...I am also looking for a wider selection of stucco and roof colors, are there better resources?

Check out this topic on Ivy (www.zoogdesign.com/forums/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=462&highlight=ivy)

Accurender may also have something.

If that doesn't work, there is always $RPC.

Re stucco and roof colurs.... try Accurender's site ( Home page link from Zoog ) and RUGI.

Other than that there are many sites for free textures. Some of the links are listed in Rendering topics.

and here (http://www.zoogdesign.com/forums/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=871) is a post on making a parametric lattice which you may wish to use as a component in your trellis. Alternately make a solid trellis with a see through material. It will render correctly and show as a solid item in other views but might be quicker if that is an acceptable route.
