Collaborations

Hi, im Working for the FG Nature Assets and will do FG Bushes.

This is my WIP to document my progress and learning.

    These are looking great! Exactly what we're looking for. In addition to what you already mentioned, I would love to see some more really subtle variation in the leaf color in the texture, and the normals copied from spheres via the Data Transfer modifier so that the light makes them look more rounded. On a technical note, I also think we should go with Alpha Clip for the leaves to improve performance. Keep up the good work!

    Final Model

    @jlampel @theluthier 

    I finished my polishing and saved the Master version. I have 3 collections, each with a individual bush.

    I have tried 1 material, with a color switch with the vertex colors, to change from green to orange. But then i decided its simpler and easier with 2 materials.

    Waiting for all the implementations. Was a fun and good learning excercise. Any final thoughts from your side?
