During my VCAD journey, I have learned and love modeling, texturing, lighting and rendering using Maya, Substance Painter and Arnold. But when I was introduced to Houdini I knew I wanted to become a Houdini artist specializing in its dynamic systems and procedural modelling.

Have I found my favourite 3D program yet?

Lighting and Texturing

Lighting, texturing and rendering are my favourite process even though it takes the longest time to process. It is almost like a never ending process because there is always something one can make it better. I love this process because the possibilities are endless and the results of different lighting and texturing bring surprises to the final rendering!
