3DT Ivy Generator – Blender Geometry Node Procedural

🎥 Demo Video

🛠 Update Geometry Node

Quickly draw dynamic, customizable ivy across any surface with the 3DT Ivy Generator!

This lightweight yet powerful Blender 4.0+ geometry node lets you grow ivy on buildings, terrain, or props with curve-based placement. Now updated with enhanced stem controls, scale falloff, and full support for leaf collections with randomized scaling, density, and falloff.

🎯 Key Features

Draw Ivy with Curves
Use Blender’s Draw tool to sketch ivy paths directly on surfaces, or manually assign bezier/path curves.

Multiple Leaf Types Supported
Plug in any collection with your own leaf meshes — four stylized and realistic leaf types are included.

Real-Time Stem & Scale Falloff
Updated stem controls allow shape variation, and scale falloff automatically slims ivy tips for realism.

Leaf Scale, Density, and Randomization
Adjust base size, randomize width, and control how densely ivy populates your drawn path.

Alpha-Friendly Shading
Supports PNG and transparency-based shaders for easily swapping in custom leaf textures or materials.

🔥 Why You'll Love It

Perfect for Buildings, Statues, and Terrain
Sketch ivy on walls, fences, ruins, or rocks — the geometry conforms instantly to any surface.

Supports Stylized and Realistic Looks
Switch to red, green, or stylized ivy meshes with built-in presets or custom inputs.

Super Lightweight & Viewport Friendly
Works flawlessly in Eevee or Cycles and ideal for large scenes with minimal performance impact.

Beginner-Friendly & Flexible
Just draw a curve and go — no weight painting, particle systems, or manual positioning needed.
