A great way to understand Houdini’s node-based workflow is to explore it in the context of a project. It is important to start learning how to think and work procedurally. In this lesson, you will learn how to create your own custom brickify tool using procedural nodes and networks to define its function and interface.

Along the way you will get to use different aspects of Houdini’s workspace. By learning how to use these UI elements together, you will dive deeper into Houdini’s node-based workflow. The lessons will then give you a chance to put your ideas into practice, which is one of the best ways to learn.

This is an updated version of this H19.5 Lesson.

    It's so fast I can't keep up. I can't see anything because it's going too far.
