Low poly eucalyptus tree, built to your size

A tall pale smooth trunk, bare high up, a sparse open blue-green crown. As proposed, the eucalyptus tree is 3,844 triangles at 15.0 m, with foliage as clumps of leaves. You can take it from 10 to 20 m, and every other control stays within what an eucalyptus tree can be.
A eucalyptus places a scene in Australia immediately. It works for the bush, an outback station, or a hillside in fire country. It was also planted widely in California and around the Mediterranean, so it fits a roadside there too. The tree has a tall, pale, smooth trunk that's bare high up, under a sparse, open crown of blue-green. The trunk color, cream shading into gray, does as much to identify it as the foliage.
Keep the crown sparse. With dense foliage it starts to look like a beech. The builder proposes a blue-green pair for the leaves and bark colors that suit the peeling cream and gray of the real tree, and it's best to stay close to those. Extra height and a slight lean both help. If you change the bark to charcoal, the dead version becomes a burned tree for a fire-damaged area. The felled trunk and logs make a convincing firewood pile.
What you can change
- Trunk: height, diameter, taper, sides, lean, curve and gnarl, with bark from the species' colors or any color you pick.
- Boughs: count, rings or spiral, where they leave the trunk, angle, length, thickness, curve, and twigs.
- Foliage: style, size, spread, complexity (your triangle budget) and two greens.
- Export: LOD1 and LOD2, sapling and young versions, dead, stump, felled, logs and billboards.
The export is a zip with OBJ, STL and 3MF. The OBJ uses the shared palette texture and has flat normals in the file. Models are in meters and stand at the origin, and the zip includes whichever levels of detail and other versions you select. The trees page covers the formats, and the OBJ guide covers importing.

Questions
- How many triangles is the eucalyptus tree?
- 3,844 as proposed. The complexity slider takes it down to a few hundred or up for a hero tree, and the export adds LOD1 and LOD2.
- Can I change the height?
- Yes, between 10 and 20 m, and the trunk's diameter, taper and lean with it.
- Is it free?
- Yes. There's no account, no watermark and no limit on downloads.
- Can I use it in a commercial game?
- Everything you build here is yours. Use it in any project, commercial or not, with no attribution required.
