dandelion Model 3D

this model was built for use with the shockwave 3d engine. an effort was made to keep the polygon count as low as possible, although the item was a key object in the scene so it is not as low as would usually be found among similar objects of this genre. there are 4 unique leaf images contained in the dandelion_leaf.png file. all textures are 512 x 512 pixels including the leaf bump map.

3ds max version 8

face count (editable polys): 350
vertices: 322
any objects in this scene that are not modified primitives are editable polys primarily made of quads. you can expect the poly count to double when converted to a tri mesh.

the rendered images of this item were made with the mental ray renderer that comes with max 8, therefore the real-time apearance of these items will be limited by the 3d engine used.
