Geometry Nodes Cactus - Part 8

This is part 8 of an 8-part tutorial for creating growing cactuses with geometry nodes in Blender.

If you prefer to just download the geometry node cactus blend file, here's the link:

Note: This tutorial assumes you have the "Node Wrangler" add-on installed in Blender, and you're familiar with it. Also, this tutorial was made using Blender version 3.4.1.

Warning: The full tutorial is 4 hours in length, and each video ends fairly abruptly, with the next video picking up exactly where the previous left off.

The 8 parts cover...

1) [23min] Cactus segment
2) [24min] Chained segments
3) [25min] Growth and rounding the top
4) [40min] Buds (spines) on ridges
5) [27min] Cactus twist and bud spacing
6) [12min] Rounding the bottom
7) [14min] Randomising tilt
8) [70min] Arms and final touches
