Basically i am working on a animation and i made this as one for the main models for it but it was just designed very simply and no real thought went in to the look of the finished plant e.g. generic flower.

I plan on using the glow effect still but i was wondering if anyone had a better idea for a style or type of plant that would look better, but it would need to be one that flowers for it to fit the scene.

Also any improvments ove rthe way it's modelled would be good, or jsut any comments in general.

One leaf is a bit too long. Nice glow effect.

The leaves look a bit spaccy.
Make them a bit less floppy.

I'd like to see the petals blush different colours and shiver intermittently, and for the central pod to wink at me like a lizard eye, and for the twin-circular base to turn in different directions.

Surreal plant!

This is probably not what you had in mind...

Most things look better in wireframe for some strange reason. The only problem with doing whole scenes in it is that it shows up carless modelling.

I think the wire frame looks better than the 'finished' model.
