Creating a flock of low-poly birds
🕑 Added 2020-12-30 14:46:51 +0000 UTCHello! I find adding a flock of birds really helps sell the scale of certain scenes. There's also a step-by-step video that can be followed here: https://youtu.be/eSL98LLr1kw. And, if you want to save a bit of time, I've attached the .blend file to this post. Thanks!

Wow! You answered super quick! And even with a video! Awesome! Thanks! That’s a very easy solution, thanks a lot!
No problem. You should be able to change the particle rotation option from "global" to "local" for orientation axis. https://vimeo.com/747639433/06776b7cf9
Thank you very much for the tutorial! Is there any way to rotate birds direction? I checked "Object Rotation" by the Icosphere under ParticleSettings >Render >Object Rotation But that's not so cool, because I can't animate the direction very well - when I turn the Icosphere the birds won't turn with it. Could you please help me out here.
