Beta testers needed for Iray vegetation shader

It's custom (not build upon Ubershader) two-sided shader for non-volumetric leaves, petals and grass.
Some demos:

This shader can produce some interesting results in other fields, like this

but it is not general-purpose two-sided shader as it lacks some ubershader features. (It's in work ;))

Nice work...I especially like the grasses. I wish I could help but at the moment I'm flat out...

EXCELLENT work there. Can't beta test for you, I've got about 4 projects in the works but kudos for your creative work!
