Hi The Kind Gardners It won't hurt to buy the software! I am a professional Garden Designer working in the UK and I do use Master Landscape Pro. However I don't use it for the final presentation to my clients. I hand draw the plans, elevations and construction drawings the old fashioned way using ink on technical quality tracing paper. If the client can't visualise from 2D (and let's face it not many people can!) I transfer the details to Master Landscape pro so that they can view in colour 3D. This is a lot quicker than producing hand drawn perspective and axonometric drawings. The reaon I don't present the plans from Master Landscape Pro is that they simply don't pass muster with the market here in the UK. Over here the 2D presentation plans need to be rendered and shaded and generally artistically pretty before the client will hand over any money for them! One thing I have found very useful is to export the 3D images as a JPEG file, open it in Microsoft Picture it or equivalent photo editing software and then you can use watercolour, dry brush or coloured pencil to give it a softer hand painted look. My clients love these images. If you're interested you can see some examples of this on my website under the heading '3D Artist's Impressions' at www.elusive-eden.co.uk Hope this helps a bit!
