EVERYPlant Cordaites LowPoly 1 --14 Models-- Low-poly 3D model

Name: Cordaites LowPoly

Scientific: Cordaites principalis

This Variation: 1 of 4. This is a Low Poly model. A High 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: 14 models in total

1. Standard -- 9,989 polygons, 19,749 vertices -- 23.44m tall. Fully mature and in good health. Useable in most scenes.
2. Thriving -- 10,428 polygons, 20,840 vertices -- 23.44m tall. Peak health.
3. Unhealthy -- 8,374 polygons, 15,731 vertices -- 23.44m tall. Relatively poor state with foliage missing or diseased.
4. Dying -- 5,675 polygons, 9,099 vertices -- 23.44m tall. Just hanging onto life and showing only unhealthy and diseased foliage.
5. Dead -- 4,040 polygons, 5,300 vertices -- 23.44m tall. Showing only bare and broken branches and dead foliage.
6. Uprooted -- 4,106 polygons, 5,378 vertices -- 7.77m tall. Dead plant fallen onto its side.
7. Stump -- 2,011 polygons, 2,326 vertices -- 9.39m tall. A dead plant with its trunk broken and missing.
8. Ancient -- 12,155 polygons, 22,310 vertices -- 30.41m tall. Very old plant, larger and considerably gnarled.
9. Young -- 7,663 polygons, 15,888 vertices -- 16.89m tall. Smaller plant, some half way through its maturing cycle.
10. Immature -- 2,119 polygons, 4,808 vertices -- 5.76m tall. Very small and young plant.
11. Sapling -- 529 polygons, 1,346 vertices -- 1.06m tall. Recently sprouted, may not have any leaves.
12. Lower Poly -- 8,240 polygons, 18,361 vertices -- 23.44m tall. Fewer polys to save system resources. For mid or distant renders. Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
13. Higher Poly -- 15,079 polygons, 25,650 vertices -- 23.44m tall. More polys for greater detail. For close-up renders. Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
14. Uniform Mesh -- 10,442 polygons, 19,930 vertices -- 23.44m 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.
