Great shots as always, Pat! The grass looks so real, is that a ground enviornment package or the scenery itself?

Great job with that, looks as if it were part of FS.

Haha yeah too much time - that definately on a long sunday night I just had to take a break from studying history... boooooring
Took me some time to play with contrast/saturation to get the photo grass to be as close to FS one as possible. I guess the goal was achieved
