Hi everyone! hope you are good! Finally, we get to know and learn how to do recursive organic growth!

For this growth effect we are going to learn how to displace a volume, find its normals and select to displace only a few parts of the surface! We will learn a few tricks with volumes! Hope you enjoy this one!

In the next part, we will learn a few more tricks with volumes like avoiding objects or growth and fill one object! In the end, I will show you how I render these works with redshift and its amazing subsurface scattering.

If you have any feedback please leave a comment below, I know this system can get a bit complex and hard to understand.

Do not forget to share your results with us! Tag us on Instagram and we will reshare your work in our stories!

Hope you enjoy this video!

Houdini Tutorial: Recursive Growth

Hi everyone! hope you are good! Finally, we get to know and learn how to do recursive organic growth! For this growth effect we are going to learn how to displace a volume, find its normals and select to displace only a few parts of the surface! We will learn a few tricks with volumes! Hope you enjoy this one! For this tutorial you need to know some basic stuff about volumes and create custom velocities with them. If you don't know how to do that, please see our Intro PyroFX tutorials, especially the second and third parts! We will be going to use custom velocity created with volume vops and I need to be sure that you know and understand that part.
