Trees, courtesy of Arbaro (Esperanto for tree), an open-source platform-independent Java program that EXPORTS .obj format (that can then be loaded into Vue). The program takes the tree specifications in as xml and there is a generous pack of pre-prepared settings. The first picture shows the poplar and aspen, the second ... willows. I have had to back off from the full quality and resolution shown on the Arboro page, particularly for the willow, because of the size of the files - was having trouble importing them - so the willow looks a little spindly, but I have by no means explored fully what I can do to compromise between the limitations of my system and the possibilities of the program.
