Re: Trees

On the entry form Autodesk asks what other software you used in addition to Max. I don't know if plug-ins are allowed or not, but I'll bet they'll give more points to a team that modeled their own trees vs. teams that used a plug-in.

Here are some more tree tutorials. Some are not specifically done in Max, but the same principals apply:
