Should have started with this quote My render will never live up to your expectations!

I don't see how you can have a grudge about it when you've never tried it. Speaking on behalf of the majority here who use render, the landscaping detail and colour you have outlined is not possible with polystyrene and render so to live up to your "realistic" standards as you said, latex or fiberglass would have to be used (having stein fiberglass enclosures, good luck cleaning it if you use it on the floor!). Never having worked with these products I cannot speak about if this is a practical option.
another monotone render inspiration shot for the majority
It would be hard to hear that someone does not like something that you have worked so hard on but that is someones personal taste and in real life someone would not tell you something like that but that is the idea of a forum , to hear the good , the bad and the ugly comments. I would not take Snowmans comments to heart as he would not mean anything buy them other than it is not to his taste. I thought the first one you put up was ok looking and I like this second one you posted but that too is just my opinion on it.I don't see how you can have a grudge about it when you've never tried it.

I also use a mix of 1/4 water with my pondtite which helps keep away some of the glossiness.
I would depending on price.Just a quickie; would herpers be prepared to pay for realistic faux rock product, similar to Universal Rocks, moulded directly from oz rockwalls, but more reasonably priced?
If I can't make it I would buy it. Water Rat has some real looking rocks he made that are up to my standards. He may post some for you to see....I honestly believe you went about wording your post wrong snowman. Yeah my rockwall is one color, I like it, I'm sure if my bearded dragon didn't like it he wouldn't spend all day on it climbing it, running around on it.. Sleeping on it.
I do not believe you meant to sound like such an *** by you kind of did. People do put a lot of work into these kind of things and we all can't be artists. I for one. It is impossible for me to paint or build something without something looking bad or out of place. I just don't have that touch but yeah, I'm very curious and interested to see what kind of rock wall you can produce and for your sake, I hope it is 100% genuine realistic looking rock otherwise, well, it'll be awful.
(mods, don't mean sound harsh, wasn't trying be mean or put him down, just replying to his post as accurate as I can)

I want to do that aswell!A Lego background would be awesome! Would my snake hurt himself on the corners/edges?
given us an awesome idea!Oh dear! What have I done?!!
I can imagine making her whole house/enclosure from Lego! Would be easy with all the cords and stuffhehe created a monster. Im considering ripping foam out and replacing it with the tonne of Lego my parents still have from when I was little
Hi snowman, great pics mate thanks for sharing, must have been an awesome weekend.
Hope you dont mind but im going to save some of them pics for future reference, there exactly what im looking for.
Your opinion on other ppls back grounds, well your entitled to it, i would be quite proud of any of the backgrounds shown on this thread so far, and for me its not the colour but the texture of the rock. I understand alot of ppl use sand? for texture, does this not come out like sand papper?
