    the end result is much much more dense and thickly grown than the pine trees i’m used to seeing around where i live so it feels somewhat off to me. that said, it does still look nice.

    Excellent product for a very reasonable price: about the best I’ve seen yet. This video will hook you – well, *I* was! – and you’ll find yourself so wanting the rest of the course. Jonathan moves at a good pace, is clear in his instructions and descriptions of what he is doing and why and the results? are just WOW. I’ve had the sapling addon for ages, tried and tried to get decent results and failing miserably, then just following this halfway through already have a tree infinitely better than 99% of my efforts in the past.
    Well done, Jonathan! Purchased your fine series with great enthusiasm and excitement at what I will learn next!!!
