This is some work in progress of an asset I'm currently working on.. I was playing around in houdini today and this is what came out of it..

Still need to tweak it on some points, finding ways to make this better..

Pretty neat idea! Is there a way to have different distributions of sizes/shapes of rocks? For shorelines with pebbles fading into sand, or even other types of ground debris (like wood chips), it'd be really nifty.
Writing code for fun and profit since... 2005? Wow, I'm getting old.

This is faster than doing two exploded views which uses two foreachs + other nodes twice. Have a look at the attached file.
