Advice on desert/wasteland terrain

[Alfrik]

In the source pictures, the color of the ground is effected by the overcast sunlight also, that is washing it out some. Not sure if that would be a momentary color effect or is "permanent" due to nuke dust in the atmosphere etc. Just a thought.

Small leaves and succulents are the order of the day for desert plants as former user said, but you don't nescessarily need to hold back on the colours and volumes of planlife unless you want the instantly recognisable sereotyped desert.
