Dead Tree Model

[j meyer]

Hi there,
this is supposed to be a barkless dead tree for midground and maybe far
foreground use.
Opinions please.

Very cool. Put some dead wood texture on it and you have a winner.

Actually forget the texture it looks fine.

Kinda spooky looking - good for night-time renders.

Looks really good. It would be nice to have the discarded branches also. With some more texturing, this would even look good close up. It shopuld be possible to do this using power fractals.

Great as is: we can always apply our own dead tree textures to suit.

I downloaded the picture of a certain 'Mad Frenchie' which would make a great wanted poster.

It's great! Are you going to share this? A few variations of this would be even better 

[Henry Blewer]

It's in one of his posts here from August or since then. You can't miss it, about midway down the thread column.

looks great, i wonder what lives in that hole?!

thats the best goddamn dead tree model i have seen on here by far
well done

[Thelby]

I like the bottom twists as it goes up the trunk, very nice.

depends on what's being rendered....

Thanks to all of you!

Actually the tree has been painted with a few dead tree textures,but
it's more like a theatre prop so you can see some detail from a distance.
As far as i know it is currently not possible to texture it with an additional
power fractal inside TG or simply apply a photo texture,because the UV
seams become visible(see attachment please).But of course one could
change the overall color and the reflection tint.
For comparison i've attached an untextured version also.
And yes,i'm going to share it,if you guys want it.
What kind of variations would you like?

[mhaze]

superb model glad you are going to share it. If it's in obj. format we can texture it ourselves.

I think if you apply the fractal a level above, you get a "world coordinate" kind of fractal which doesn´t care about the UV seems. Very nice model by the way!
