3D artist and animator in progress.
Learning, trying, failing, and sharing the results.

[Enrique Corvus @enrique_corvus]

Made an object break apart, with fragments spinning and falling through the air.

#Houdini #VFX #CGI #Destruction

[Enrique Corvus @enrique_corvus]

Made a tablet dissolving in water. A small project exploring fluid motion, bubbles and dissolving effects.

[Enrique Corvus @enrique_corvus]

Made a flag waving in the wind. A small project focused on cloth simulation and natural movement.

Playing with paint, gravity and fluid motion. Trying to make the flow feel natural and satisfying.

Day 5 — Two inflatable mattresses 🛏️💨

Inflating and pushing each other apart, creating a chaotic dynamic movement.

Starting a new project 💰

I’m building a personal finance app.

The goals: create a useful tool for myself, improve my programming skills, and use the project to validate my programming diploma. 🚀

[Industrial Light & Magic @ILMVFX]

ILM’s Grant McCune and Douglas Smith set up the Star Destroyer miniature for the opening sequence of Star Wars: A New Hope (1977).

Day 4 — Honey pouring over a chocolate nut candy 🍯🍫

Working on fluid simulation and realistic materials in Houdini.

Today I took another step in learning USD.

Dug deeper into baking lighting and textures — slowly getting a better understanding of how it fits into the pipeline. 🔥

Day 3 — Falling threads 🧵

A simple thread simulation in Houdini, focusing on natural movement and interaction.

Day 2 — Fabric blowing in the wind 🌬️

Working on cloth simulation in Houdini and pushing the motion and details further.

Day 1 — Jelly ribbon drop 🍬

From Houdini simulation to Katana rendering, using USD for the pipeline.

[Enrique Corvus @enrique_corvus]

Starting a mini-series of small projects — one new project every day. 🚀

Let’s see how far I can take it.

[Enrique Corvus @enrique_corvus]

I finally figured out why my volume render was looking wrong.

I tested two approaches:

Standard density.
Density generated in Houdini and passed through a Primvar.

The second approach gives much better detail and a more natural result.

Building a Lifegroup in Katana for final OAV renders. One place, consistent results, no copy-paste chaos. #Katana #VFX #Render

[Enrique Corvus @enrique_corvus]

Still learning FLIP simulations in Houdini.
This time I worked on a river simulation and spent a lot of time testing fluid motion and behavior. The result isn’t perfect yet, but it’s only the start — more practice ahead 🌊

#houdini #flip #fluidsimulation

[Enrique Corvus @enrique_corvus]

This experiment was focused on liquid pouring, fluid motion, and collision tests while getting familiar with FLIP simulations 🌊
