have a problem with adding leaves. i follow your tutorial up untill the point where your adding leaves and there is not problem but when i add my leaf shape in the generate leaf OB: box instead of lots of leaves attaching to the ivy, the original leaf that i created at attaches to the ivy, leaving me with just one big leaf. what am i doing wrong?

[JamieA242]

i just watched 2 long ass tutorials expecting him to show the ivy actually growing... like a transformation.

The work in your "Blending Me 2" file looks really nice, were all the models done in blender? Some look like they have been done in zBrush :)

[flujotech]

Brilliant, best one yet! Thanks for this.

[voytechj]

hi ward, you should try next time "File->External Data->Make all Paths Relative". Its a nice script and it changes all paths for you automaticaly.

[Tinak00777]

kinda makes me whant to make vaines :3

[PyroEvil]

I don't know what king of flexibility you want but "Ivy Generator" is a great free software for creating realistic Ivy in geometry. You import you Obj where you want Ivy grow , setup your ivy with a couples of parameters and export a Obj of the Ivy for using it in Blender or any other 3D software. Juste did a such for " Ivy Generator by by Thomas Luft " you the first link should be the good one.

BTW, great tutorial for anyone want more controle !

[ward7299]

right, this was a tutorial on how to do ivy with no external plugins

[tirotsu]

hmmm might use this technique for a old house or something. Nice tutorial. Thanks as always

[stkjes]

5 / 5 *, your tutorials are very good

PD: Sorry for my english, I usually speak Spanish.

[FreetheMan117]

@ward7299 will the twigs and leafs and grass work in the game engeine like if you wanted to make a wall of trees and grass?

[sixstrings2]

I have seen some of videos where you have live video and you add cgi animation to it (I.E. a fireball from the hand) can that be done in blender or do you use 3d Studio Max for that?
