Trees in Rime

Stefan_Martens

Hey everyone,

I was looking tequila work's new game: Rime. The artstyle is great and I was especially attracted to the trees in that game. I started doodeling away in maya but I couldn't get close enough for my liking.

Does any of you art wizards know how I can achieve a similar effect? I love how soft the lighting looks on everything.

Some screens of Rime:

You could try to do something with aligning mesh normals to viewing angle.

Looks like sprites with a normal map. A bit of vertex color for variation. And sort of half lambert shader. There's a volumetric effect too, maybe prebaked ?
