Description

A medium-to-young aged Date Palm in an environment somehow resembling it's native own (dry regions of Middle East). Here displayed without dates, but the model comes with dates too (actual Date Palms start to produce dates only in a late adult age, so much that in Italy there's a popular saying that goes "he who plants dates does not eat dates", which should be indicative of *how much* time can pass before the palm gets fertile!). For those interested, this model (along with an adult-aged and a young-aged model, and together with other 57 photorealistic fruit tree models) is available for sale with the Fruit Library at Greenworks. (Model rendered in Vue 4.1)

This is great....Are all of the trees in the library this good? What I've seen are pretty impresive. Do they come with those textures, or do you have to add them?

Hi Lin, Thanks! we do all our best to ensure that all the models we create are up to the highest standards. Our approach is extremely serious. All of the textures belong to the EXACT species modeled. We didn't take no shortcuts. This was a big effort, as if forced us to collect thousands of tre and plant textures all over the world. But we have built a library collection this way, that we can proudly say has no equivalent anywhere in the 3D software for completeness and realism. Yes the XfrogPlants libraries all come fully loaded with textures. You just have to click-and-load to enjoy. Of course, nothing will prevent you to adjust our models to your taste! Actually, this is the best way to learn how to model with Xfrog!
