You can also watch part 2 on YouTube.

We’ve broken the movie into seven parts for faster download, and we are posting a new part each week. So be sure to check back next week for part 3.

Here are a few posts on Phantom Moose that are related to part 2:

By the way, the arrows, sword wall, and phantom moose were created in Blender.

It’s called Dryad, a tree generator that is free for any use. Currently, Dryad is available for Mac and Windows. You will need a good Internet connection, because Dryad downloads user generated trees off the Dryad site, and also uploads information about the trees that you chose.

When you find a tree you like, just click the check mark button, and Dryad makes a Wavefront .obj file, which can be imported to Blender. Sweet!
