Vue F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 30 8:14 pm)
Just one leaf? I'd scan it then use a alpha plain. The easy way. The much harder way is use it for a terrain then apply the image to it. You not going to gain much though for all the work that is envolved. The leaf is thin so it's sort of poinless. Leaves? Well I'd use a seamless texture personally.

Ya steal the one off the tree in Vue. Use the tutorial to render one branch then crop it so only one leaf shows up on the new picture. Or find a leaf. To get perfect results. Find a really good leaf with a clean solid color background. You have to make a mask ay? Remember that, There is sevearl ways of doing it.. My way would be. Find a good leaf image with a solid backround single color. Photoshop: If you don't have it well figure it out for the program you use. Make the mask Select the background color with the wand adjusting the amount of colors selected till all the say white is selected. Copy > paste as new layer> Select load selection, fill solid white 100% select inverse fill 100% solid black. Mask is done. Copy all paste as new image. Select white part again. Now the tricky part. Find red or leaf colors that represent the leaf well. Fill the white part with this new color on the original image. Say it's a fall leaf so you would fill it a slightly red color. It will make the mask work better cause it will be blending to red instead of blending to white. Get it? Ok I need coffee I guess. I only made like 30 spelling mistakes.This site uses cookies to deliver the best experience. Our own cookies make user accounts and other features possible.
