The second episode is here! 

I love to explore ways to use 3D, but to sort of hide it and subtly blend it with my 2D approach. In this latest shot for my film I think I found a nice balance for the grass. It doesn't look like a flat texture on a surface and not overly 3D detailed either. I like how it still feels painted but that it allows me to move a camera over it and individually animate it.

I will upload a video on my YouTube showing the same shot but covering more of the general workflow for the scene building.

I have added the Rock model and the grass textures to the Elder texture folder.
If you wanna use the same assets feel free to try.  But I encourage you to also see if you can paint your own ones if you intend to create a similar thing.

Here is a quick link to the Elder asset post:

Olof - the video is great. Really cool to see how you created the landscape. I'm not finding the rock and grass assets in the drive. Are those available yet?

Check the link under the video. I update the drive folder link there. If it didn't work before it should work now :). Just double checked.

Great video, the grass looks beautiful! That was an interesting tip about using the Magnet tool too, it looks way smoother than using soft selection or something.

hey can i ask a question? how did you add the particle effects?

olofstorm

They are made with trapcode particular (plugin) in After effects. Both the wind lines and the small particles are done using that plugin. Hard to break down exactly how without going into full detail.
