quick one had fun playing with shaders & cop noise on this
tips:
- swirly fluids in COPs: fractal noise UV mode low roughness -> pos of another fractal noise
- for melting meshes, instead of vdbmeshing the sim points, better to point deform the original source mesh by sim (if no extreme movements). you get uvs for free
- blur P & N for extra smooth. Blur vertex normals by split branch, blurring P, calc normals on vertex, copy vertex N back to branch.

Reused the texture from Rock day but not much time

Day 26 Melt

I went with the expression you melt my heart. Very simple render for today ... simulation is very hard !

Mardini 2025 – Day 26 – Melt

Steam pouring through the pipes now, flowing into the glacier field.

The pipe didn’t just flow — it spoke - and the land listened.

The Snow came early, who knew.

see you soon,

I had fun building this out especially that waffle cone. This one's all Houdini. Rendered in Karma.
