Create a Photo Realistic Forest - Blender 2.92 Tutorial (With Quixel Megascans)

Hey everyone! Welcome to the latest tutorial from Just The Basic's! It's been a minute. Now this tutorial is long overdue, so I apologize for the delay in content. I actually recorded this tutorial a while ago, but due to trying to be a perfectionist, it ended up taking far more attempts to complete than I had hoped, but it's here now!

I've linked below a list of great free assets you can use to follow this tutorial step by step. As mentioned in the tutorial, I've used Quixel Megascans for my textures and assets as this is my regular workflow for creating forest scenes. Quixel assets are NOT required to follow along with this tutorial however. This video is merely a step by step guide on one way you an reate a forest using these assets.
