UPDATE 4/29: This is the same video as the one above, but has higher resolution options so you can see the steps much clearer.
These are a couple tutorials showing how to create flower-like objects in Houdini. I’d like to get into making plants with Houdini at some point, especially flowering plants, so I just wanted to start gathering some resources for that.
While one of these tutorials is for creating water flowers, a lot can be taken from that for the core of the flower making process. The other tutorial is for making a rose, which is perfect for a lot of flower uses. It also says it uses Redshift, which I’m not sure what that is or how much of a difference that makes in Houdini’s workflow for any reason.
