The goal in this example was to create a simple "fur" tree to demonstrate the fur node (as opposed to the hair fur tool).

Twigs are created using add, polyspline, and polywire

Twigs are populated with curves using the fur node and the twigs are then copied onto the main trunk.

The single "fur" tree is then instanced with variation in size (pscale) and in rotation (orient).


Note that you could also use inexpensive geo such as tubes, or cards (sprites) for distance trees.
