FIANNA WONG

Fianna breaks down how she built a dense, detailed bike shop environment using Houdini 22's new tools entirely within SOPs. She covers a fast asset pipeline using image-to-3D generation, the updated Quad Mesh tool, Scatter Instances, and Implicit Surfaces for quick, cheap booleans. The real magic happens with the new Houdini 22 USD sub-nodes, which let you organize your USD hierarchy and manage layout transforms directly inside the familiar SOPs environment before cleanly passing everything over to LOPs.
