Day 01- flower
I'm a beginner that just started to learn Houdini and I'm using Mardini as an opportunity to motivate myself
I followed a tutorial by Danny Laursen
Didn't have time for a render or texturing, so it's just a viewport view

My submission for Mardini 2026 Day 01

I know it's a few hours late of the EST deadline, but I live on the west coast and it's kind of my signature to always be late

My day one participation. The idea was to make a non literal plant, I try to make a quick organic inspired but with pentagonal shape and a kind of hybrid
tech look.
Cheers.

Making me some stylized trees.
The labs tools are doing all the heavy lifting and it turns out there is a new birch grunge texture already built into Copernicus which did a very nice job on the bark. Animation needs work but out of time.
