I did this a while ago for fun/modeling practice, but I figured I might as well post it here.

Original render

A newer higher poly and fixed version…
The normals were off in the first render, but it gave it a very interesting and pretty artistic contrast. I can’t decide which one I like better, and I’m too lazy to go changing the shading types for the new model just in case it would look good.

I wanted to make the roots blend into the ground more smoothly, but I didn’t know how to do that. :spin:

I like it too. I love the texture on the tree, it feels soft! and love the color! there is something reassuring about this image… maybe it reminds me of toy I had when I was a kid!

good Job!

Mathias.

Aw this is cool, how exactly did you get the bump of that texture? Can you show the setup? This is cycles right?
