Hi, I really need help creating a bonsai tree.
I want to do it using the Sapling Tree Generator addon, but I just can’t manage it… unfortunately, there’s no tutorial for this, at least I can’t find one that shows how to create a bonsai tree with it.
I just… don’t get it… this is the best model I’ve made and it looks terrible…
It doesn’t look as bad as you think it does. You just need to texture it. The bottom of the main trunk should be more bumped/displaced than branches coming off it and they should be more bumped/displaced than the ones which are slightly smaller than them. Here is something I did doing that…
Wow, thank you so much for all your responses, and especially for the kind words. They made me really happy.
I am currently working on a larger project, and the bonsai tree was supposed to be just a part of it. However, I have realized that the tree actually doesn’t fit in and wouldn’t make sense… thank goodness, haha.
Thanks for all the links to videos and other topics. I watched quite a few of them and gave it another try, and it worked out much better this time. Of course, I still don’t understand a lot about it, but at least now I can model a simple tree with leaves and all the textures.
I’m not sure what I should link as a “solution” here… but… THANK YOU ALL!
