    The plant or the fruit...

    I've got a partially finished fruit, still needs to be textured, that I can 'bump' up the to do list...

    Here's one in 3ds format.
    Link remvoed (needs to be cleaned up and converted, but it's not a horrible job to do)

    I do know that a while back, it was one of the Xfrog samples...not free any longer ($24)...but it's the whole plant AND fruit.

    If you can't find one, as a quick workaround maybe you could you pick some other veggie like a tomato, slap a dformer on the lower half to stretch it out from tomato to eggplant shape, then change the color from red to purple. Should only take a minute or two.

    Well, I just looked...it's in a less finished state than I thought...the squash are more finished...can I interest you in a zucchini?

    It's not UV mapped, like I thought it was and it's missing the calyx/stem...don't know where they went. So it won't be done tonight. :red:

    There's a Japanese site that has a lot of foodstuffs including an eggplant but I'm afraid I can't post the link here as there is nudity.    You can do a google search for cgi.jelly-po and the first link is it.   It has Japanese characters and the site is in Japanese so you need to go on the right, below the calendar and it's the first link.   From there scroll to the bottom and go to the next page and you'll find it.   Sorrry for all these directions but I've had posts deleted before for linking to sites so this is the best way I can direct you.   If you can't find it PM me and I'll send you the link privately.

    Or run it through Google translate...it does a good enough job to navigate by.
