Realistic Forest with Blender

Here is a realistic forest I made using Blender, for the ground grass I used Grasswald and for the dead leaves and trees it was a mix of some hand modelled geometry that used textures from textures.com. For the trees I used SpeedTree for the far distance trees and for the close up I used Megascans bark surface for the displacements. Lighting was fairly basic, I used an overcast lighting (“tiergarten” from HDRI-Heaven) and a sun light for some directional lighting with a few spot lights that had basic cloud noise texture on it to break it up. One frames takes about 20 min in 4K with 500 samples. I used the new Intel Denoiser. Colour Grading was done in Davinci Resolve 17.1 by another talented artist.
My specs are -
Intel i7 8 cores
RTX 2070
24Gbs of RAM

Is the human modeled or composited?

She’s a 3D scan. So it’s a 3D model
