Have you ever felt that your creativity is being limited by the number of
limited plants available for Vue?
Are your third party imported plants taking too long to render?
Are you interested in learning how to create your own Solid Growth plants?
If so, this is the tutorial for you!
Over 8 hours
of in-depth training!
Tutorial videos are 1024 x 768 pixel resolution.
Tutorial Presented in the QuickTime 7 Format

Advanced Custom Plant
Creation is a cross application tutorial.
This tutorial will show you how you can use programs like Photoshop,
together with Vue, to create new and completely custom Solid Growth
plants and trees!
If you are not a current
user of Photoshop, then you will be happy to know that the techniques in the
tutorial can be used with almost every image editing application.
Even if you don’t plan on entirely designing your own plants, you can still
learn how to use existing images maps,
like the ones found in the AsileFX Leaves Collection and AsileFX
Seamless Bark, to customize Vue plants and trees.
Samples from these collections are included with the tutorial to aid in the
learning process.
The tutorial is taught in
Vue 6 Infinite, but it can be used with any version of Vue that has
plant surface editing tools.
Photoshop CS2 is used to demonstrate all image editing tools, but
most earlier versions possess the same tools, and can be used without
restriction.
Instructed by Nicholas Pellegrino, Master of Vue and Photoshop.
Includes an HTML Autorun Menu UI for easy navigation through the tutorial.
Course Overview
* First you will start out in Vue
and learn how plants and trees are generated.
By examining and dissecting each surface, you will gain the knowledge needed
to understand what it is that you need to create,
in order to modify each plant species.
* Next its over to Photoshop were you will learn to use
painting tools in combination with images, to make branches and leaves for
your Vue trees.
Learn to quickly and easily apply realistic colour blends and variations.
* Once the colour map is complete, its time to learn how to make your,
Alpha/Clip, diffusion, bump, specularity/highlight, and
luminosity/luminous maps.
* Then it is back to Vue, where you will use the Function Editor, with your
created image maps, to edit various Vue plant and tree species.
Apply realistic bark textures to the trunks of your trees. Learn to create
generic leaf surfaces, which can be applied to any tree or plant, and saved
for later use.
You can also use these methods to improve the quality and realism of existing
Vue plants.
* Then it's time to take a look at single leaf plants (plants that are created
using only a single leaf).
You will be taught to use existing leaf images, like the ones in the Leaves
Collection, to directly modify Vue plants for immediate results, with no image
editing required.
* If you are interested in painting your own leaves, you will find the next
part of the tutorial particularly useful.
Learn what things to consider, and what tools to use for painting custom
leaves.
Discover how you can create more foliage for denser plants, just by making
changes to your image maps.
* Once you have created your own leaves, you can use the knowledge gained from
the previous sections to
compile your custom plants and trees, and make something entirely your own.
