# Shell Texturing
Following the [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dr-tRQzij4) by Acerola explaining shell texturing in video games, I decided to recreate it in Godot.
For now this uses a MultiMeshInstance and a custom shader with some basic shading in it.

As can be seen here it gives the illusion of grass made of mesh when observed from a high angle. But the illusion breaks when the observation angle gets shallow.
