zowie123 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Hi, I'm thinking I'd like to try more broad brush 3D landscaping --suggestive landscaping rather than do the landscaper's job. Anyone know of a repository for such things? Thank you, Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskan_Son Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 In addition to checking the 3D warehouse try the bonus library titled "Image CAD Blocks" or better yet maybe..."3D Plants". You can also do a quick search of CAD trees and I'd venture to guess you'll find a bunch of online sources. I'm thinking the 3D Plants bonus catalog might be your best bet. In VECTOR VIEWS they look nicely generic and "sketchy" and work for both plan and elevation views...worth a look anyway. If the face counts start to cause you problems you can always create a CAD Detail from View and just steal (cut and paste) the 2D CAD for any given view(s).

Gawdzira Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 See images. What I do for the dog walker is to take an image into Photoshop and cut out what I don't want to see to create transparency. I did the same thing with one of the trees from the bonus library. It was a bit time consuming to cut out the holes in the center of the tree but it really only took a few minutes. I could create a fair library of these in 45 minutes. I just use a basic 2d plant and replace the image with my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzira Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 It just got easier. I did a screen grab of this tree and brought it directly in as the image file. I bumped the transparency in the plant information to 2%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zowie123 Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 Huh, I'm going to have to wrap my brain around that method...It something like what I'm looking for. Thanks for sharing..Gawdzira! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
