Hi Guys,
This is Udhay. I am a sort of newB to Houdini I haven't worked on too many shots with it but I would like to work on a HDA which can do the following, The topic i have selected is “Winter Effects For 3D Environment”. Im planning to design a HDA with python integration.
The main aim is to take a 3D Environment and change it into the environments like in the movie “ THE POLAR EXPRESS”. Generally accumulating snow on various objects and depending on type of objects. The various details like Icicles on the roof of houses, The creation of road with snow and car tire marks. The details on leaves and tree branches can also be created.

These are few reference images that i have given, Please take a look.

I want you guys to comment about the basic idea, complexity level that you feel and a few suggestions that could help me to move ahead with the execution.
