Facility K6

I began this project by experimenting with a simple cell expansion effect using Houdini's solver. My goal was to develop a method that could be applied to a finished product. With a few days to myself, I explored various ideas before ultimately landing on this one!

This project started from a simple cell expansion solver I wrote in Houdini. This was one of the first tests.. pretty boring!

I was getting somewhere with some radial symmetry and noises, but we're still in 2D... too boring!

Added one more dimesion.. now it's looking much more interesting! Some cool shapes are starting to appear...

Final alien structure - turned the curves into a VDB and threw it into the vellum solver for the alien 'skin'. Added some tertiary detailing to finish it
