| Another experiment, plants and trees,
we made the flower pot first but did not put any texture
on the leaves, it looked very ordinary, We then improved
it by adding a leaf texture, it is a passable plant animation
now. The just a tree animation may look simple but each
branch and leaf was drawn separately and it is a true 3D
animation that took hours to make. Now the palm tree we
are well pleased with, The basic model is just a tree trunk
with curved flat solid rectangles for the leaves. A palm
tree leaf was rendered onto each rectangle and a transparent
background was used. Not too much work and yet a nice Palm
tree was produced. We love to experiment. Dot and Dave. |
