Description
Name: Great Basin Bristlecone Pine
Scientific: Pinus longaeva
This Variation: 4 of 4. This is a High Poly model. A Low Poly version is also available.
Notes: A long-living species of bristlecone pine tree found in the higher mountains of California, Nevada, and Utah. It includes the tree named Methuselah, which is 4,855 years old and has been credited as the oldest known living non-clonal organism on Earth. To protect it, the exact location of this tree is kept secret. The tree grows in large open stands and generally does not form closed canopies, usually covering only 15-50%. The tree is a vigorous primary succession species, growing quickly on new open ground, but is a poor competitor in good soils and the species does best in harsh terrain. It is often the dominant species in high-elevation dolomite soils, where few plants can grow.

Lower Poly -- 59,856 polygons, 150,398 vertices -- 17.19m tall. Standard model with fewer polys to save system resources. Intended for mid or distant renders.
-
Higher Poly -- 215,999 polygons, 333,912 vertices -- 17.19m tall. Standard model with more polys for greater detail. Intended for close-up renders.
-
Quads -- 120,365 polygons, 231,134 vertices -- 17.19m tall. Quad polygons throughout (as opposed to mixed, which is much more efficient). Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
-
Triangles -- 206,882 polygons, 208,440 vertices -- 17.19m tall. Triangle polygons throughout (as opposed to mixed, which is much more efficient). Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
-
Uniform Mesh -- 143,584 polygons, 236,617 vertices -- 17.19m tall. Uniform meshing throughout (as opposed to adaptive). For easier editing. Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
Re-meshing and any reasonable modification available upon request. No charge to existing customers of the product.
The textures included are mainly 4k (4096x4096); additional texture sizes of medium 2k, small 1k, and tiny <1k textures can also be downloaded. Separated alpha maps can be download as well.
