Hello all, this is my very first post and also first render with Houdini. Started using Houdini 15 a few months ago and I'm really loving it!

Looks cool. What was your process to achieve this?
Are they animated in any way, growing?

@reelinspirations: Thanks for the comment! My process was based on a tutorial by Niels Prayer, you can check the tutorial here:

Basically what I did is offset 2 points for each stem, joined together with a line using the “add” node, then I segmented the line with the “resample” node. I then added some noise with a “Point VOP” and finally generated the mesh with a “wire” node, I used a ramp parameter for the with of the wire to give it the profile shape.

And yes, they are animated, just didn't have the time to render the animation.

Hope this helps, best.
David.
