Ruin a romantic picnic, or feed a bird or frog with Nature's Wonders Ants set.

Ants are common insects, but they have some unique capabilities. There are more than 12,500 known ant species that occur around the world. They are especially prevalent in tropical forests. Up to half of all the insects living in some of these locations may be ants. By weight, ants equal or surpass the weight of the human population on the planet.

Nature's Wonders Ant Lines is a standalone set that can be used in conjunction with Nature's Wonders Ants (a single ant model) or by itself. The set includes 5 ant line props, each containing 9-13 ants. These props can be placed in succession to create an ant line, 100 or more individuals deep, without the time intensive placement you would have placing them using the single ant model. In addition, each of the ant lines have had geometry selectively reduced to lessen resource stain while not distorting the high resolution mesh or textures of each ant species represented. Each of the 5 ant lines has dozens of morphs to control individual and group alterations on the default line which in turn will make the lines less repetitive looking when several are used. Also included is an Ant Hill prop and an "Ant Cam" to help you locate the ant line model (due to their extremely small size).

The set has both native DAZ Studio and Poser versions and supports Iray, 3Delight, Firefly and Superfly render engines.
