Low poly mountain support

I am currently working on a low poly mountain in blender as you can notice. Although I can see how the mountains lack the detail of becoming neat and much steady like other ordinary low poly mountains.


Despite that i’m still learning blender and practicing, I am seeking different ways on how you can create low poly mountains and creating a nice shape for the mountain instead of loop cutting and moving the center vertices until its in the shape of a pyramid for each mountain.

I know there are different ways of creating low poly mountains by using the vertices,edges and face selections of the mountains and shaping them to look much more of a real mountain using a Low poly method. What ideas for the shaping process do you have in mind and what color variation should I use that goes along with the mountains to look neat?

Overall, Feel free to give me suggestions in the background of the grass fields or the small lake as well if you think it lacks some detail as well. Ill try my best to read every reply about them too so that gives me an idea to put in more effort to them both so it would look neat.

That’s… not helpful, did you even read their entire post? They also asked for ideas on what else to add, don’t reply with nonconstructive responses. And there’s tons of modellers in the forums, it’s perfectly acceptable to ask for advice here.


As for the actual post, I myself don’t model but for details I’d suggest adding more variations of greenery, some bushes, different tree types, maybe add a small fire/camping area or a trail leading to the mountains, just make it a bit more lively.
For the lake I’d suggest adding some rocks, possibly a log or something, just more elements so it’s more than just a blank scenery.

As for the mountains, they seem really small, the trees are taller than some, almost taller than the biggest, i’d assume you’re trying to have perspective at play here with them far in the background, but I don’t think it’s turning out that well.

I would highly suggest looking at some references online to other scenery models, or just landscapes in general. You can find a lot of stuff to work with and combine it all into your own design.
