This is an experiment I wanted to try ever since I heard that we could populate on objs. Several populations of rocks. Not really practical for large scene but still fun.
That looks great. :)
Oh wow. Great application. 8)
Good stuff. Actually, I was curious about how to do snow on objects, although I was thinking more architectural. This method should work quite well.
Clever thinking, but indeed, as soon as you have a forest your winter will be gone before the rocks have settled ;)
A nice idea for winter scenes
Populations on objects will increase realism and creativity.
Nice one!
Looks nice! Have you tried to animate the snow?
What a nice try! I on the other hand was wondering if you can imitate snow just by repainting part images of the objects through image processing programs.
N-drju I have done that in the past. Like I said it is not practical when you have over a million snow flakes for one tree or in this case rocks. I am sure one of those better at this can come up with a better idea. Maybe I will design a snowflake obj. :o
If you do, let me know. :D I think I'll be doing just that (repainting) when on winter scenes, although I don't plan any right now. I think a good way to achieve snow effect would be to tinker with the .obj file itself. Adding lumpy-looking objects onto tree branches and then covering those with some snow texture might be a good idea. I'm no specialist in modeling but I guess you know what I mean. :D
Oh man! That really works!
