very nice... looks very promising. can you adjust the texture so the smaller leafs look a bit different from the larger ones? usually the large leaf is more rubbery and darker and the small softer and lighter....

Ahhhh good observation x_site! I will work on that once i redo the uv's. i scrapped the old set earlier while testing out the material. (was missing bottom leaf pelt) Next round should look better!

Very nice, I like the third down.

Superb! Is that displacement going on there or you further detailed the model? It seems like SSS is in action so how did you blend the textures decently and does the model have thickness?

I tried displacement, but didn't like the results i was getting. will continue to explore though. leaf and stem are single solid object.
here are material settings. started with jade build in for sss.
