Maxon yesterday announced its acquisition of Laubwerk, a company that creates procedural 3D models of plants, trees and flowers that are used for architectural visualisation, VFX, and general 3D art projects and animation. Maxon's list of apps includes Cinema 4D, ZBrush and renderer Redshift, which will all benefit.
This is a win for Maxon One subscribers because Laubwerk’s plant and tree models will soon become available to them via Maxon’s Capsules library, a repository of assets for building 3D scenes that includes, among many other things, paper and stop motion clay materials by Fuchs & Vogel, and 40 Adobe Substance 3D materials. A selection of Laubwerk's plants and trees is already part of Capsules and can be accessed via the Cinema 4D Asset Browser.
