If i was to make a tree in Zbrush, would i have to model every single branch, the trunk, and the leaves and make it a single polymesh? It seems like that could take a lil while.

Far as the Trunk Go's you can Make that oFF 1 mesh and for your leaves
make 1 LeaF and activate the (Gyro) hit the letter W=move now click the Camera looking icon in the floating menu called (snap shot) it will duplicate another leaf ect,ect.
you can re size it as your going along..
shouldn't take to long

if you do the task of building a polymeshtree, i would love if you share it, LWTB, no matter what size the file is :D :D :D

i thought that in addition to EZ’s :cool: description some of the methods collected here (http://www.pixolator.com/zbc-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=002493) might be of interest for you!

About making a tree polymesh, I think Davey recently mentioned that you can have only 255 markers, so the nuber of leaves you could have is limited... good luck!
