EVERYPlant Crucicalamites Horsetail Tree LowPoly 1 --15 Models-- Low-poly 3D model

Name: Crucicalamites Horsetail Tree LowPoly

Scientific: Calamites cruciatus

This Variation: 1 of 4. This is a Low Poly model. A High Poly version is also available.

Notes: An extinct, tree-sized plants that lived during the Carboniferous and early Permian periods (about 360 to 250 million years ago) to which the modern horsetails (genus Equisetum) are closely related. Unlike their herbaceous modern counterparts, these plants were medium-sized trees which grew to heights of more than 10 meters. Although it's stem was woody, it was nonetheless a delicate plant that grew in the sub-story of prehistoric forests. Several sub-genera of Calamites existed, this species fell into the category Crucicalamites and were distinct from other Calamites in the dense primary branching from the main stem. These plants grew from an underground connected network of rhizomes as well as from seeds. It appears to have preferred sandy riverbanks and floodplains. Fossils have been found virtually the world over suggesting the plant had a global range.

9. Ancient -- 15,197 polygons, 25,459 vertices -- 8.41m tall. Very old plant, larger and considerably gnarled.
10. Young -- 9,071 polygons, 19,133 vertices -- 3.65m tall. Smaller plant, some half way through its maturing cycle.
11. Immature -- 1,072 polygons, 1,864 vertices -- 1.77m tall. Very small and young plant.
12. Seedling -- 522 polygons, 862 vertices -- 1.17m tall. Very young plant just forming its first true leaves.
13. Lower Poly -- 10,206 polygons, 21,999 vertices -- 6.9m tall. Fewer polys to save system resources. For mid or distant renders. Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
14. Higher Poly -- 20,128 polygons, 33,444 vertices -- 6.9m tall. More polys for greater detail. For close-up renders. Standard model included, remainder models upon request (no charge).
15. Uniform Mesh -- 17,579 polygons, 30,107 vertices -- 6.9m 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.

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, perhaps just the identifiably different species which have at least a common name!
