Overview
Danny Laursen shares these free Houdini project files with Part 1 of his Blooming Flowers series on modeling, rigging and animating a procedural flower. The first part models a single petal procedurally and rigs it with KineFX so it can be shaped and animated between a bud pose and a full bloom, while later parts cover phyllotaxis placement, Vellum and rendering in Karma and Solaris.
The Gumroad product is pay-what-you-want, free at $0, and contains the project files for the whole series; missing-asset warnings on opening can be ignored. A rewarding project for procedural modeling and rigging practice.
