In 3D World we try to celebrate the CG community and industry, whether that’s the latest blockbuster VFX movie, visualisation project, or render from a talented newcomer. Part of this is looking at the tools we use to create our art, and it’s clear that over the last few years Houdini has carved out its place in the workflows of many artists and studios, especially in the areas of simulations and motion graphics.
SideFX has a reputation for creating software to help creatives and technical artists excel and innovate, and their latest release is no different. It features some exceptional tools for simulating what must be the best CG feathers we’ve ever seen, along with other new additions for cloudscapes, crowd simulations and more.
