I am considering purchasing 3D Studio while I can trade up from AutoShade renderman. One consern I have is surface textures and landscape. Working with AutoShade I found my renderings were cold and hard because I could not create realistic looking surfaces. Does 3D Studio come with all I need to render images. I am an architect and so I am trying to create the kinds of surfaces found on buildings and in landscapes. Will I have to purchase 3rd party softrware to get the surfaces I want? Are there any bulletin boards that co have libraries of bitmapped textures that I can down load and try like sharewareerre ?
