Description:

This is a model of 2 glass Koru i decided to model and texture. Comes with the 2 models fully textured and a easy to use material group.

You can also adjust the gloss on them, but there are quite a few separate nodes so i just left them inside the group.

Whether they add something to your scene or just some eye candy, i hope you like them!

    They are lovely, thank you!

    But I must ask: what is a "Koru"? (Google Translate thinks it is Latvian for "choir," which is unhelpful.)

    Thank you for the compliment, glad to hear it!

    And Koru are native plants in New Zealand often used in Maori art, and there are plenty of stores that sell glass 'koru' ornaments and jewlery.

    Exactly what I needed to know. Thanks! Peace.

    Edit: LOL! Guess I should have thought of this earlier -- Wikipedia has a good article on koru. Lovely tradition, lovely design -- worth knowing!
