Laubwerk Releases Plant Kit 8

Potsdam (Germany), July 19, 2016: German digital botany software company Laubwerk today announces their eighth collection of render-ready, realistic 3D plants designed specifically for architects, CG and VFX artists. The new Plants Kit 8 is available immediately for 3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, Houdini (Windows), and Python (Windows).

Plants Kit 8 is a selection of both common and distinctive temperate shrubs and bushes species planted in parks, gardens, and rural landscapes including excellent shrubs with spectacular floral display such as Yunnan redbud, and Bachelor's buttons, common hawthorn with beautiful autumn color and the cherry laurel 'Schipkaensis', a very popular ornamental shrub.

Many Laubwerk customers have heavily suggested shrubs, e.g. by Zoran Gorski aka "Kizo", a 3D artist from Croatia and owner of Arscom Studio: “Finally shrubs! The new Laubwerk Kit features a great selection of shrubs that fit perfectly in exterior Archviz projects – but not only. The variations really help giving the extra touch to my projects and work great from various distances, even close-ups”.

The new Kit 8 and all Laubwerk Plants Kits are each available for 149 Euro (w/o VAT) at Laubwerk Store and selected Laubwerk resellers. Multi-user and EDU discounts available. The Plants Kit Freebie is available for download at the Laubwerk Store, too.

Laubwerk Plants Kits allow architects, CG artists, and VXF specialists to insert photorealistic tree models into their 3D scenes quickly and easily, without the usual slow downs due to overly complicated parameters or excess memory usage. Laubwerk accomplishes this goal by giving users just the right amount of variation in their 3D tree models, without overwhelming the user or their computer. Each tree model comes in 3 shapes, with 3 ages, and 4 seasons per shape. Adjustable level of detail settings means that each tree looks great without slow navigation or long rendering times.
