| Example: Painting Foliage with Project Dogwaffle |
Project Dogwaffle is a PC paint and animation program. Using the Optipustics particle brushes, you can paint realistic grass, shrubs and other foliage, even animated waterfalls and fireworks, to use as part of a 3D scene rendering by mapping the created textures onto rectangular polygons acting as billboards.
Here's an example of putting it all together: Using a seamless texture for the ground floor, and trees by DigArts as well as tufts of grass from PD Pro.
| Example: Trees and Textures by DigArts |
DigArts makes excellent collections of trees and shrubbery for painting and 3D compositions. Try the free samples, buy the complete sets.
