EVERYPlant Cordaites LowPoly 2 --14 Models-- Low-poly 3D model

Name: Cordaites LowPoly

Scientific: Cordaites principalis

This Variation: 2 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 -- 9,165 polygons, 18,074 vertices -- 25.76m tall. Fully mature and in good health. Useable in most scenes.
2. Thriving -- 9,481 polygons, 18,852 vertices -- 25.76m tall. Peak health.
3. Unhealthy -- 7,37 polygons, 13,659 vertices -- 25.76m tall. Relatively poor state with foliage missing or diseased.
4. Dying -- 5,379 polygons, 8,624 vertices -- 25.14m tall. Just hanging onto life and showing only unhealthy and diseased foliage.
5. Dead -- 3,814 polygons, 4,991 vertices -- 24.73m tall. Showing only bare and broken branches and dead foliage.
6. Uprooted -- 3,917 polygons, 5,105 vertices -- 7.2m tall. Dead plant fallen onto its side.
7. Stump -- 2,189 polygons, 2,531 vertices -- 4.97m tall. A dead plant with its trunk broken and missing.
8. Ancient -- 10,926 polygons, 20,186 vertices -- 34.01m tall. Very old plant, larger and considerably gnarled.
9. Young -- 6,885 polygons, 14,295 vertices -- 18.29m tall. Smaller plant, some half way through its maturing cycle.
10. Immature -- 2,325 polygons, 5,366 vertices -- 6.22m tall. Very small and young plant.
11. Sapling -- 486 polygons, 1,230 vertices -- 1.15m tall. Recently sprouted, may not have any leaves.
12. Lower Poly -- 7,388 polygons, 16,633 vertices -- 25.76m tall. Fewer polys to save system resources. For mid or distant renders. Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
13. Higher Poly -- 13,467 polygons, 23,059 vertices -- 25.76m tall. More polys for greater detail. For close-up renders. Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
14. Uniform Mesh -- 9,520 polygons, 18,081 vertices -- 25.76m 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.
