I've tried so many different designs, but I can't get one that looks right 😭
Can y'all give me some advice please

The second design is my favoriteout of the three.
Some tips:
Male it more pointed at the top, add lights (planes) around it to give it that Christmas tree feeling

I'd suggest start at the stem, remake the bottom layer, then copy it and make it slightly smaller (1-2 pixels), rotate it a tad and repeat.
As for the texture, try making the green cubes inside the tree darker, and make the gradient of the leaves start from a darker tone and slowly gets lighter as it goes out

#

Could you send a pic of how one layer looks or?

#

I'll try to when I get back home

#

Alr

#

Sorry if my explanations aren't exact..just trying to word it in a way for you to understand

#

2-3 are your best bets by far, planes re[plicate a more leafy feeling

#

You could follow lego and make 2 like this

Nice

#

Well ima go back to texturing the mob I'm making.

#

What you making

#

Some type of demon. I think I posted a wip earlier

#

Sure

#

Is that for each plane or?

ivory trench
#

Uh that would be like the second one, they get slightly bigger as they go down

elfin trellis
#

Yes but is that texture on one plane. Or is that just the 4 from one of the layers?

ivory trench
#

It's 4 from one layer

elfin trellis
#

Ah

#

Ok, so again, the cube that's in the middle that's acting as the leaves inside the rett..make it darker. Then start the gradient with a pixel of thet color, and slowly make it brighter as it grows out.

Once it gets to the upper smaller portion of the reel, angle the planes downward more

ivory trench
#

Ohh
All of the other models I've been referencing angle the last portions less

elfin trellis
#

Ah

#

It will help with the triangle shape

#

I'd suggest making slight changed to each planes textures, but that may get too noisy

#

And again, adding a small layer to the top will make the top less cut off

Merry Christmas!
