  Grass

  Posted by Nick Anarky on April 15, 2011 at 5:29 am

  Hi all,

  I’ve got a scene where I use grass in patchy spots. I’m making the grass using the hair tool (it just looks nicer than fur) but the problem is that where the patch stops the grass just squares off, which doesn’t look that realistic.
  Is there a way that I can make the grass thin out as it gets towards the edges of the patch?

  Thanks

  in the Hair material activate the Length channel and put a texture (handmade image or a circular or box gradient perhaps) in that to control the length

  Thanks ^_^
  I’ve found that adding a gradient to the density tab on Guides works pretty good as well.
