No tutorials that I know of, Alistair...

I would suggest that you grab yourself a picture of some vines and start creating! Maybe make yourself a few "custom leaf shapes" so that you can quickly and easily create leaves of various sizes.

Thanks wendy. I'll do that. After I get home I'll show ya all the project that i'm working on

When you get it figured out, please share the knowledge. I've always wanted to make photorealistic plants and vines. The farthest I've gotten was this leaf, which still looks pretty fake to me. One leaf does not a plant make, but I gave up anyway :{

Well, that's not a real leaf like you said its really darn close. I think that is stunning. Ever think of writing a tutorial for that?

Thanks Sanby! I've never thought of making a tut for the leaf but it's a good idea. I made it about 2 years ago, so remembering what I did would be the hardest part ;-)

Well, I would model them and render.
Then give them some touching up in PS.
