Collab2021 – WIP – Yukinoh

@spikeyxxx thanks a lot apparently i counted not right , 24is the edge count , i ended up with 16 vertices so i guess that is great. 

i do have one question , right now the bottom will be also having the yellow dot . should i try to fix that or wont that be noticed? 

then for the lower part of the flower should i also use the same technic or should i here work with a 5 sided mesh?

or is that depending on the type of flower ? 

like with this i could use the same technick but if the flower points downward i should work with someting to create some volume ?

that’s not a problem if it won’t be seen, which I think is the case.

You can use different tecniques, depending on the flower, se what works best; the hanging flowers will probably need a slightly different approach.

Looks really good! I would add a little more height to the flower to make it less flat. Like your first model, the flower leaves tend to stand up.

@spikeyxxx and @daphne2 thanks for the feedback. gonna work on diffrent kinds of flowers, diffrent depts and perhaps some clumped flowers together to see how the vertices count will be with duplicates . (i wanted to take a look at the geometry node’s but i notice when i open my file i dont see that option. ) when i open a new file its in there . how can i fix this ?

That is really weird….don’t know what could be causing that 🤔

You need to have some object selected, in order to be able to add a new GN tree, but the Geometry Node Editor should always be available….

I still have to try my hand at the geometry nodes (will do this week) so I don’t know either. But maybe a workaround: make a new file and append your geometry from your current file?

@daphne2 thanks i started a new file and appended my flower. the top layer of 1flower has been modified with a geometry node. i do wonder will this have any impact on the final animation rendering for @theluthier or are geometry nodes made that way so it wont slow anything down ? 

because this way i think i could get some really cool flowers without needing too manny vertices . right now this whole pack has 128 vertices, perhaps i could even reduce that amount. but for that i should test some extra stuff of course (to hopefully stay under the 100 vertices)

some update, if certain flowers aint good or looking weird bad  … let me know so i could change them 🙂

if the water lily get a go ill add that to the collection too 🙂

[spikeyxxx]

Beautiful, Yuki!

[yukino hatake]

Thank you, ill make some more  this weekend 🙂 

[Kent Trammell]

Lovely flowers @yukinoh1989! I’m very happy with the lo-poly quality too. Planes + textures is 100% fine for this project 👍

[yukino hatake]

Thank you so much Kent 😀
spikey, for the flowers should we also already use a copy of the file with the blockout and place flowers there to see some result ?

[spikeyxxx]

I actually don’t know which file that is. There should be some file with placeholders, but I haven’t found it yet 😉

But as far as I understood, we don’t put it in the Assembly file ourselves.

And I don’t know if we should make the Master file, or if Kent will do that. I know he has mentioned that in the stream, but I will have to re-watch that.

Have only today managed to get the syncing going…

I am hoping that Kent’s written instructions will bring more clarity.

[yukino hatake]

ok 🙂 for now ill just make flowers try some placements to see an overall effect in larger area. for not i dont know yet how the syncing works (yesterday i putted in my blend file and also the textures of the flowers) so i hope that i did that part correctly. 

[spikeyxxx]

Your. blend and Textures are all there in the right place .
