Second year of Mardini.

I enjoyed it so much I felt like I was in a Dixit card game, when working on my idea and after that I saw that others thoughts were the same or super different. - it was nice surprise
I also learned a lot and it opened a lot of houdini doors for me, and touched parts of the program I never had the courage for, or just forgot that it exists.
It was nice to contact a bit with the same interest, I don't have the opportunity in my average days to have this.

and Mardini proved again to me that Houdini is a unique kind of tool for creativity, I never used a piece of software like this.

so thx to be part of this and I hope sooner than next year.

see you in the future mardini folks

And with this submission a crazy journey comes to an end! I'm so proud of us all! Putting out daily art like this is very hard to accomplish! And you guys inspired me to give my very best every single day.

I learned so many things during my first Mardini and it has been a lot of fun and learning. And also going out of my comfort zone. It is so cool to see this contact sheet and to look at this whole journey. What a difference a month can make! Thank you so much for this amazing community and the SideFX team ❤️

Looking forward to next year!

Another year, another Mardini done!

It was not easy this year as I had to balance between full time work and Mardini. The ideas and creativity were hard to fuel after long days of work.

I went almost 100% with Redshift this time. I also tried to push in a slightly different direction compared to previous years, focusing more on color, textures, and making the images more tactile. There are a few in here that I’m really proud of!

I’ll definitely try to join again next year. It’s such a great way to learn and grow.

Big thanks to SideFX, the judges, and of course all the artists who participated. It’s always inspiring and fun to see everyone’s submissions and the winners. Congrats to everyone!

Cheers!
