EVERYPlant Cordaites 4 --12 Models-- 3D model

Name: Cordaites

Scientific: Cordaites ludlowi (Cordaites principalis also available from EVERYPlant)

This Variation: 4 of 4. This is a High Poly model. A Low Poly version is also available.

Notes: Extinct plant from the late Carboniferous to the Permian Period (about 323 to 299 million years ago). Fossil specimens have been found in both drier hinterland regions as well as floodplains and swampy ground. It was more common in brackish, swamp areas, but it is notable for being able to colonise drier regions, a feature absent from many plants of this era. This seed plant had leathery, strap-shaped leaves and is thought to be closely related to conifers (at one time it was thought to be the ancestor of modern conifers, but this is no longer considered the case). Those that grew in swampy areas had a more extended stilt-root system then those that grew in drier areas. Fossils have been found mainly in Europe and Asia, but a more extensive range is evident.

Included in this Package: 12 models in total

1. Standard -- 93,952 polygons, 146,760 vertices -- 23.41m tall. Fully mature and in good health. Useable in most scenes.
2. Thriving -- 97,125 polygons, 152,669 vertices -- 23.41m tall. Peak health.
3. Unhealthy -- 80,341 polygons, 120,081 vertices -- 23.51m tall. Relatively poor state with foliage missing or diseased.
4. Dying -- 64,015 polygons, 87,691 vertices -- 23.51m tall. Just hanging onto life and showing only unhealthy and diseased foliage.
5. Dead -- 41,204 polygons, 51,098 vertices -- 23.51m tall. Showing only bare and broken branches and dead foliage.
6. Uprooted -- 41,570 polygons, 51,471 vertices -- 4.98m tall. Dead plant fallen onto its side.
7. Ancient -- 111,848 polygons, 167,265 vertices -- 24.04m tall. Very old plant, larger and considerably gnarled.
8. Young -- 62,948 polygons, 105,272 vertices -- 17.3m tall. Smaller plant, some half way through its maturing cycle.
9. Immature -- 9,097 polygons, 17,596 vertices -- 6.12m tall. Very small and young plant.
10. Sapling -- 2,411 polygons, 5,576 vertices -- 1.18m tall. Recently sprouted, may not have any leaves.
11. Lower Poly -- 32,812 polygons, 75,010 vertices -- 23.41m tall. Fewer polys to save system resources. For mid or distant renders. Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
12. Higher Poly -- 225,842 polygons, 306,674 vertices -- 23.41m tall. More polys for greater detail. For close-up renders. 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.

EVERYPlant has a mission ... which is to model every plant species in the world (plus some extinct, fantasy and sci-fi variations as well)! Okay, maybe not every plant! If you don't see it in our store, please get in contact; we have thousands of species on file awaiting upload.
