The terrain is kinda bad. but the model is the main concentration. hoping to start a discussion here do you think that something like this would be possible in a game btw the models are very high poly and im rendering the game at 1600x1200 resolution. so factor that in. download the two tests from HERE forgot to mention that i didnt make those models.
