Creating Old Growth Mossy Tree – Tutorial and Game Assets

This tutorial includes a full walkthrough of first creating a series of materials including tree bark, 2 types of moss, and a collection of leaf foliage cards. I’ll be going through how you can use Zbrush to create these materials without having to use any other software. After completing the materials and assets I will be going through the workflow on how to create an entire old growth moss covered tree game asset without having to leave Zbrush. Concluding the walkthrough will be importing the final FBX of the old growth tree into Marmoset for material set up and final render composition.

Skill Level Intermediate Level, you should be familiar with the basic menus and workflows with Zbrush, Maya, Photoshop, and Marmoset
