About three hours’ work, quite a bit of postprod in Photoshop. Alpha-textured quads for the pine needles. Space for greetings and text on the right. Previous owner was an old woman who would only drive it to church.
Feel free to steal, reuse and abuse it however you like, as long as it’s non-commercial. (Yeah, as if.)
Merry Christmas and/or whatever other holidays you may be observing!
Thanks!
No, the leaves/needles are just quads. I use a simple rectangle and apply this texture:
Then I just applied that to the alpha and nor channels of the texture. I added a green material, then put together two of those quads in an x-like shape. Finally, a brown stick along the center line of them. Actually, they look pretty crap until you hit it with the Photoshop stick.
