B-Boy Robot, igniting fire from the dancefloor while breakdancing
I'm excited to share one of my first experiments in learning Houdini 20! This project taught me so much about the software and its capabilities. I created a robot breakdancing, igniting fire every time it touches the floor. The scene is driven by attribute transfer, simulated with pyro, and enhanced with some vellum grains for extra flair. I also got familiar with the USD workflow and rendered this in Karma.
I achieved this with just four months of learning Houdini, and while its reputation as a complex software is well-earned, I've found it to be increasingly artist-friendly, thanks to a supportive community. I'm looking forward to discovering what else I can create with this powerful tool!
