Of course you are right. This picture was the first attempt to combine
multiple leaves to a "wing". Anyway, yesterday I posted an update showing a
more realistic fern with distortion in the arrangment of the leaves and
aditionally some torsion.
> BTW is it a mesh or did you combine it from other shapes?
It is a mesh. A macro computes the mesh triangles (their number is adaptive,
depending of the smoothness necessary for the given parameters) and then
computes the normals for smooth_triangles. (This was the major part of the
scene. There is almost only macro code in the scene *g*)
No additional files are necessary. All you see is done mathematically with
some randomisations.
