Full Version: Day 22 | Worlds: Sky
Hi everyone!
Here's my entry for Day 22. Being inspired by old Pixar short film about clouds, do you remember that one?

The celestial dome..
SKY
After the fallout the night before, the privileged can enjoy the last rays of sun in the Sky Lounge.

Lately I haven't had a lot of time to do these challenges but its inspiring to see everyone elses submissions! Here is my interpretation:
I call it a terrible forecast

Day 22!
First attempt at the sky for WIP. Redshift rendering.
Meditation goals-

As they say, sometimes you win and sometimes you have a breakdown at 3AM because your cloud noises were the wrong scale.
This one didn't come out too well unfortunately. I tried recreating a sky kingdom environment from a shot I used to watch when I was a kid. The sky rig was unsuccessful due to my scene scale I think and I learned a for each loop with clouds can be a big no no haha 
Probably a bit too ambitious for a few hours work but I'll come back to it eventually.

Day 22: Sky
Not a huge fan of how this turned out but hey, 22 days in a row is tough!

The Giant's Castle… Post beanstalk!
Also my first use of L-Systems where I actually had some idea of what I was getting!

How the light in the sky is born ( probably )

All Mantra with a hires/lores shader sample workflow and a mesh based way to generate the cloud shapes.

Really starting to get the hang of Houdini thanks to the Houly challenges. This is my 22nd straight entry!
Today I took on a big idea. I brought in images from the GOES-17 weather satellite showing the infrared and RGB cloud data. I wrote some vex to filter out the RGB values and converted them to scale the height of the clouds. Green data in the satellite images are the highest clouds (more likely to cause rain).
The loop below represents 110 images from today (from about 5am to 6pm EST).
I still want to refine this and make it better, but this is what I was able to pull off in one day! Looks like it was a sunny day in California….
