description
This training covers various procedural methods on creating ornamental patterns and designs in Houdini. The methods includes standard procedural modeling, L-systems and voronoi fracture to generate a variety of patterns.
The idea behind this training is try and procedurally build a variety of ornamental elements which would the modeling process simpler for complex pattern building.
Note : Can be followed in any version, Apprentice, Indie or FX.
