ephedra stem 3d model

Core Subject: Extremely detailed 3D asset of dried Ephedra stems (Ephedra sinica) cut into short segments, prepared as a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) decoction piece. Morphology: Slender, tubular, herbaceous stem segments. The defining feature is the distinct, slightly swollen joints (nodes) along the stem, heavily resembling miniature bamboo sticks. Very tiny, paper-thin, scale-like residual leaves might be attached to the nodes. The stems are straight or slightly bent, with clean, sharp cut ends. Material & Texture (PBR): High-resolution PBR textures (8k). Dry, completely matte surface. The stem must feature very fine, densely packed longitudinal striations (parallel ridges) running perfectly along its length. High roughness (Roughness), zero metallicity. Color: The main internodes (body of the stem) are a pale yellowish-green to dusty grayish-green. The swollen nodes exhibit a contrasting reddish-brown to dark brown ring. The cut cross-section is pale yellowish-white with a di
