Silver Birch 2 by MrMaison

Knowing that I was going on a trip to Europe, I knew this tree was coming. Introducing Silver Birch 2.0 made with authentic textures straight from the countryside right outside Tampere, Finland.
This is my second attempt at the Silver Birch tree. Seeing them up close gave me a better understanding of the form and where they grow naturally. Other Scandinavian trees will follow this one, like the Scots Pine, Boreal Conifers, etc. so the Silver Birch can look right at home. Until then, these trees make great ornamental decor for your parks, lawns, entrances etc.

The Silver Birch (Betula pendula) is native from Western Europe to Asia and was also introduced in other parts of the world. Other names for it are "European white birch", "East Asian white birch" and "warty birch". It is a medium sized hardy deciduous tree. Aside from being a great decorative tree, it is used for forest products like firewood, brooms, furniture and even have medicinal value from various parts. It also shares value to surrounding wildlife and plants with it's open canopy that lets in plenty of sunlight providing good conditions for grasses, mosses and other plant life to grow.
More info here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betula_pendula There are many resources to find facts about birch trees.

A special shout to Feindbild (who lended me his camera), MrMiyagi, Lazarusman, Avanya and AquilaSol for helping me with texture material. It was worth the mosquito bites and it was a pleasure meeting all the fellow modders who came to Finland and Colossal Order staff. This tree is dedicated to the Modder Meetup!

UPDATE 7/31/2019: I made the leaves richer with color.

STATS:

@MsBathory Thank you. I totally agree. Wonder why I did that for the first version and not this one. Will keep this in mind.

This is a really lovely birch tree!

One note toward even more realism I'd like to make in case you're ever looking to 3.0 it, is that the very bottoms of the trees in real life are fairly dark grey and heavily textured with barely any silvery bits (think small-ish chunks between cracks) still showing while the tops of the trunks and branches are more of a smooth (if flaky) pure white with just dots and thin slashes of dark bark showing here and there. The same way the Scots Pine is more grey on the bottom and brighter orange toward the top, but not dark quite as high up and the change is a pretty smooth gradient.

It's definitely not a problem, but if the bottoms of the trees were darker it would help cut down the slightly cartoonish effect the pure white trunks have against the in-game grass texture.

@Cengoman- Use the Ultimate Level Of Distance mod. The link is in the description.

Wow! This is the first birch on Workshop that looks about right to me! It will be an extremely important part of making realistic looking nordic mixed forests. Can't wait for the new Scots Pine! I think the spruces still hold up well despite being a couple of years old. If I can make a little suggestion for the upcoming pine tree, could you possibly make it slightly shorter than the original one? The old Scots Pine kinda feels too tall to me, although I have gladly used it on my maps. Thank you very much! Great Work!

I've been trying to get those reference photos put together, but it has got to be one of the wetter summers in a few years. But upon a good sunny day I'll have those american Elm photos linked
