I can see the diff, but I think a higher spec on the tubes might be nice. your call though.

edit: that might have come out more pissanty than I wanted it to. no offence, nothing wrong with subtle normals.

Yeah that normal map definitely makes the texture look a lot crisper. It is too late, but the scale of the foliage looks to be on the small size compared to the trunk and roots you've got on there.

Its a very unique piece of work, i got to say that. I really like it

[Yin]

Yeah... I ran out of tris to use for foliage, even though each plane only uses up 2 XD

So, I submitted it now. No really visible changes were done... Half the model didn't have a specular map before, some dirt was applied to texture, the tubes are more textured but it isn't really visible... It turned out decently I guess.

Looking forward to see the final entries. Only like 3 days left now, get to working everyone!

Love your entry Yin! The uv space could have been more optimized, other than that, solid work on texture and design - and i definitely see the difference the normal map makes, subtle, but much better. Congrats!
