3D Class Week 16 Creating An Environment Part 04 (Vegetation)

This week for our 3D environment project we created plants to add to our scene using Photoshop and Maya. We took these plants and imported them into our project and used the paint tool to fill our level with plant life. We also continued to make improvements upon our existing scene.

Although most of the plants are by the oasis, I added some more of the plants scattered throughout the level

Another example of how plants are layout in the level

This is a "starting" path I added to the level that takes you straight to the oasis

I changed the skysphere to be a med-complexity blueprint like the one we made last week. I also toned the sun back slightly while turning up the complexity on the clouds.
