I've POV-Rayed my model of Fallingwater, (URL) I'd really like to add some landscape, including the waterfall, some rocks, and maybe even a forest. Does anyone have any idea how I could do this (easily)? (I don't want to build an entire landscape in (...) (26 years ago, 16-May-99, to lugnet.cad)

That is a seriously cool model! It desperately needs a waterfall! :) Sorry, but I do not have any advice for your landscaping except to use your imagination. FLLW would be proud, move over Froebel [1], LEGO is here to stay! John Matthews [1] The (...) (26 years ago, 16-May-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Who, me? :-) The link is working now, and I am impressed. Very good representation of the home. Putting it in an appropriate scene with trees and water will be tough, though. -- Terry K -- (26 years ago, 17-May-99, to lugnet.cad)

Bram Lambrecht: (...) Well, I've written a fractal landscape generator for LDraw. You will have to work a bit on the PGM file to get a proper foundation for Fallingwater, and I haven't added a tool to set the colours in the final DAT file, so you (...) (26 years ago, 20-May-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Thanks, Jacob, but I'm not sure your landscape will work too well with the building. You see, the actual building is in Pennsylvania, not a particularly mountainous state. The main cantilever deck hangs out over the brook (Bear Run?) and part (...) (26 years ago, 22-May-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) That'd be great. (...) Could pgm_to_ldraw be changed so that it sets the height for the landscape and does the scaling (rounded off to plate heights) instead of fracland setting the heights? That would make creating landscapes much easier! (...) (25 years ago, 26-May-99, to lugnet.cad)
