There pretty good user added image

The sun should be toned down though, it washes a lot of the pictures out and is fairly overpowering.

Yeah its like Vue, but Vue has more options and fully intergrated into the maya pipeline (just got a copy for evaluation it at uni), as vues a lot more money than terragen.
