Specific monster request (spriggen)

in The Commons
I was wondering if there was a specific thing i could buy that would help me build this creature or help me slightly build it.
I have shaders for wood and a few creature morphs that could help me make something very basic but nothing to add (holes) in the character and no leaf component. how would other people go about making this , should i export a base model and try and sculpt out some detail? Help would be really appreciated. Im using base gen 8 models and iray , many thanks.

Using the uvmap you could set the area's to be invisible with the color black, with some fade off so the edges are not sharp. Ivy generator might be something to consider to make the leaves or model them individually depending on how many you need.
Maybe look into Oso's Thicket character? https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-thicket-for-genesis-8-male
Not sure if that might give you a few more options for getting closer to the spriggen-type character.
This is an older character. I do have a newer one in the works, but still will be some time away before it is done
