Sometimes it is important to know when to abandon a project.
I started a big project where I wanted to mix Fluid simulation from Houdini with Unreal Engine.
Even the project didn't come to fruition like I wanted, I still learned a lot of things from it.

Here is my submission + breakdown for the Rampage Rally by Pwnisher.
This was my first time taking part in a challenge like this. Sadly, I started quite late and only had 10 days to create everything from scratch, which made it even more challenging but also a lot of fun!

New FX finished! 🌊 🫧
This liquid dissolve effect layers multiple #Houdini simulations using SOP solvers, FLIP fluids, Pyro, VDB advection, and POPs. I built growth solvers, sine-based procedural animations, and custom solvers to drive efficient, art-directable simulations

Cool Knitting FX for a fake Shoe Advert 🧶👟
I’ve just wrapped up a new Houdini project after completing Mark Fancher’s course, where I learned how to create advanced knitting effects with the goal of applying them to a bigger project I have in mind.

Yeah, I like DragonBall how could you know?
This is my latest project to keep improving some skills in Houdini. For this, I wanted to mix Unreal Engine. It's pretty complex, cloth sims, lots of particles, Pyro sims etc... Enjoy the breakdown!

It's been a while since I've had time to do any personal projects, but a few weeks ago I spent a few days brushing up on my animation skills. The render is of course thanks to the magic of @ladycaballo.bsky.social

Hey everyone! I am a 3D artist I have mostly worked as a generalist, though currently, I am focusing on FX using Houdini and Nuke, I hope to connect with other amazing artists here!

Started setting up a starter pack for technical and vfx artists here!
It's not conclusive yet, I'll update it as I go, but it should be a great start to find some awesome artists ✨
