Variation 3 - High - poly model of Gyromitra for usage in VFX. This mushroom has different names such as brain mushroom, turban fungus, elephant ears, and beefsteak mushroom / morel. German term lorchel is a result of the older lorche, itself from the 18th century Low German Lorken, aligning with the similar-sounding (and similar-looking) morchel. Other names include: Frühjahrs-Giftlorchel, Frühjahrslorchel, Frühlorchel, Giftlorchel, hongo bonete, falsa colmenilla, Gyromitra esculenta, fausse morille, gyromitre fausse morille, bobausis.

The genus name is derived from the Greek terms gyros round and mitra headband Its specific epithet is derived from the Latin esculentus, edible. The model was obtaines using photogrammetry so espetialy good textures where captured. Delighting was performed to get cleaner color texture. Includes normal maps, height map, Ambient oclussion map, and extra bump map. Metalness and rufness are mabe out of bump map, so one can just use blaack / whte color if need be. Original textures come at 8k png, and 4k jpg are provided. The topology of model is all triangles derived from decimation master in Zbrush. (low poly / quad verssions are coming latter as seperate models)
