Pulsing pods

A clump of five bioluminescent seed pods from the Alien Jungle kit: teal stalks rise from a faceted deep-purple root mound, and each pod's magenta husk petals breathe open around a swelling glowing core in a seamless 4 s loop.

How it was made

The brief given to 1DesignTool's “3D object” template:

Pulsing pods for the Alien Jungle kit. Design it as one clear asset at believable real-world scale for that setting (state the size in metres in meta.notes), with its main parts modelled and named, readable at thumbnail size and from every orbit angle. It moves: author a seamless baked loop (2–12 s) with every pivot exactly at its hinge, axle or swivel, and keep the base still. This is one part of the Alien Jungle kit (Low-poly style, flat-lowpoly direction): A glowing forest on another world. Use ONLY the kit palette, by name: teal #2d8686, magenta #d02597, bioluminescent green #3a883a, deep purple #432055, teal dark #1a4d4d, magenta dark #8f1968, teal light #46b9b9, magenta light #de63b5, soot black #1b1b22, warm white #f2ede2, mid grey #7d828c, dark wood #3d2a1c. Every material's `name` must be exactly the palette colour it uses — the GLB carries these names so the kit recolours as one; an unnamed material fails delivery. Kit knob: expose a param `glowColour` (0–1, default 0.5) for the kit's "Glow colour" setting wherever it makes sense on this part, and keep that id.

Note: Size: about 1.55 m tall and about 1.3 m across the root spread, origin at bottom centre on y = 0, front +Z. 2752 triangles. The 4 s clip 'scene-motion' rotates each stalk swivel (a few degrees, pivot where the stalk leaves the mound), hinges every husk petal on its calyx rim and scales each glow core from its calyx socket. The mound, roots and leaves never move. The glow is a baked scale pulse: core emissive is fixed at 0.5, so turn on bloom in your engine if you want a halo. glowColour sets how many cores glow magenta light instead of teal light (0 = all teal, 1 = all magenta, 0.5 = 2 of 5 magenta with the centre pod teal). Like the other params it changes the generated model in the viewer; the GLB carries the default values. The exporter writes one material per mesh (43 in total), but they share the 8 kit palette names, so recolour by material name.
