Open for work in 2026
Pinned
[1/2] What a week. I was so happy that I finally got to work on a AAA racing game. As a huge motorsports fan it really was a dream come through to work at Turn 10.
So many passionate and talented people lost their jobs yesterday in a huge Microsoft layoff round. The teams build just ...gone.
Brick placement respects color boundaries pretty OK #LEGO #lego #houdini #procedural

Couldn't help it....added a point color threshold, basically meaning if a brick (which has a constant color value) crosses a color threshold in the source point cloud, it won't place that brick.

Alright, time to make some renders and animations to show various substeps of this procedural #lego toolset in #houdini
January 1, 2026 at 6:02 PM
Massive improvement today on #brick placements to capture gradients

Spending time again with my #procedural #LEGO project, we're getting near the finish line. Some issues to fix, some dressup and depth-of-field renders todo.

When a foundation isn't at 0 height, there'll be some cliffs/rocks beneath #lego #procedural #houdini
November 28, 2025 at 5:01 PM
Added flags.
Next up is adding cliffs sides/vertical offsets, fixing the various colors and animating the controls to show the proceduralism.

Adding bridges to the procedural gates #lego #houdini #procedural

Added #procedural arches in my #lego project

Improved the roof brick placements #brick #bricks #lego #houdini #lego

First attempt on the little extension with the black roof. Not quite there yet, work in progress. #lego #procedural #houdini
November 19, 2025 at 12:34 PM
More different pieces to construct #procedural #lego castles with. Some things to fix , after this moving to the area with the black pointy roof in the example picture

It's coming together - #procedural #lego #castle from the 80s
November 14, 2025 at 11:01 AM
Though I'm working on a #procedural #LEGO castle system, here are some testrenders of #LEGO #mountains : Mount #Rainier, #Nabro Volcano, Cerro Paine Grande and #Denali

All part of the same toolset eventually

Didn't work for too long, couldn't figure out why but now I do. And of course it was very simple.
Anyway, basics are done, moving forward with supporting more advanced shapes. #lego #houdini

Preview of phase 1 of my #procedural #lego system, it covers basic brick placement and scalability. Phase 2 will be more advanced

Happy #PortfolioDay !
I'm Bjorn from The Netherlands, I like to create worlds as a #technicalartist / #procedural artist, specializing in pipelines and tools with #houdini , #python and all kinds of engines.

Currently still at Turn 10 Studios but on the lookout for something new in 2026!

#procedural #lego in #houdini part 3 : San Francisco
October 3, 2025 at 10:48 AM
Procedural #lego in #houdini : #manhattan #newyork - 150k bricks.
October 3, 2025 at 10:45 AM
Testing my #procedural #lego system with cities. First up : #Sydney
October 3, 2025 at 8:42 AM
Rendered out 300k+ bricks as a test ....technically neat that it's possible but in my opinion it's not as capturing as the <10k (bricks) render
September 17, 2025 at 9:35 PM
Started with procedural #lego manuals for the lego creator
