Building a garden

Hello all,

This started out as me wanting a background for a scene I'm building in DAZ and quickly became a project on its own. I was looking for a garden with geometric hedges and fountains, but couldn't find one. So I decided to build my own. I'm building with Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Indian influences. Only a few pieces so far, rendered in Bryce.

    another part of the garden, which is going to have three terraces if I can figure out how to do that in Bryce

    Very pretty! Especially the first image. Are you actually modeling all these props yourself or are you assembling the scene together from various props to get the look you want?

    thank you. I'm assembling them from various props (alas, I have no real skill in modeling if it goes beyond simple booleans). Some of the props have been deconstructed and reconstructed from others. The plants and hedges are from various sources. I tend to download tons of freebies and then use them later. The statues were modeled in DAZ.

    I ended up making a palace for my garden, so I could get the views I wanted.
