Here in Canada we would like to forget about today's prompt - SNOW!

Day 27 - Snow

A snow ferret(ish) critter playing in the snow.

poly + VDB modelling for the ferret
kinefx for rig and animation
vellum grains -> volumes for the snow
Karma XPU for rendering

Day 27 : Snow

I am amazed by the result of this one. The setup is so simple but I was proud how straight forward it was. I had this picture of a frozen branch and tried to replicate it in Houdini. Nicely done

Karma XPU for rendering, MPM solver for sim, and Greyscale Gorilla for HDRI and roughness map on sphere.







Good luck all!

27 Snow

Title: First snow

Originally I thought I would make a procedural tool to make the flakes, but then figured my time is better used rendering frames, lol. So I made the most basic version of a snow flake generation process I could think of and that worked well enough.
If I were to make a tool, I would probably replace the cop part with an L-system that could get turned into a texture.
