showing shrubs in animation

[chow choppe]

Hi all

 

please suggest me good and realistic way of making a shrub or hedge along a curve for an animation project with vray so that rendering times dnt go too high

i tried diplacement over an extruded box but that is taking a lot of time because there are a lot of shrubs that need to be put

 

looking for better suggestions from experienced users

 

Thanks

hi brian

 

i already saw those

they just a paragraph written about them which really doesnt explain buch to a noob like me.

maybe some images that explaing the process(shape of leaf, distribution object, texturing) will help me understand it

 

Thanks
