Hello there lovely SketchUp people, Just wondering if there is anyone out there who is able to model realistic 3D plants? My workflow is SketchUp to Enscape. My first priority is Loropetalum chinense Purple Pixie and below I have attached a couple of reference images. It would be awesome to hear…

Are you asking for advice on HOW to model plants or asking for someone to model this for you? I can model 3D plants and I’m sure there are others who can as well but they do take time to do with a decent level of accuracy and quality which is why I ask. See example of modeling a California Golden P…

Gorgeous poppies Eric! No I don’t want to learn, just find a talented person like yourself to model the species I need for my work. I’m a garden landscape designer in Australia, as I said SketchUp to Enscape is my workflow. Yes, I’m well aware how time consuming the process for plant modelling is…

You’re too kind. I’m glad you like it! Thank you for the compliment! I model plants occasionally. This was the very first 3D plant component I successfully modeled. [Oak%20tree_Scene%201] Usually, I just download them from the 3D Warehouse instead of modeling them, but occasionally I model plants …

Nice work as usual @Forestr . When you have a moment, myself and I’m sure others would benefit from you sharing your workflow on creating that plant. Thanks!
