The #engagement ring I made for my fiancee. Forgot to post the result here :). #jewelry #weddiing #houdini #sidefx

Meme-modernism.

Finally sourced diamonds for the ring. Emerald cut and two baguettes. Next step is to adjust the 3d model to fit actual gems. #wip #3d #jewellery

Attention to details makes a difference (even if 99% of the time you are the only person who cares). ❌ Easy way - just cut out the inside. ✅ My way - spend shitload of time refining the velocity field to follow constraints and produce the desired shape. #Houdini #b3d #WIP

How is this possible that the Uniswap chart has these gaps? . How can be the opening price different from the closing one on DEX? . #DEX #AMM #Uniswap

white gold / yellow gold?

A quick render to get an idea of what it looks like with embedded stones in it. Next step: Source actual physical diamonds and calibrate the design. #WIP #Houdini #b3d #jewellery

A quick comparison of various scales for the field.(I lean towards the third one). #houdini #WIP #b3d #3d

Another iteration from yesterday. I added variants for gems, and additional constraints for the simlation. Next step is to refine the simulation further and make some functional design changes, like adding prongs for stones etc. #houdini #WIP #b3d #3d

Wondering why crypto is 99% pixel art.

Another iteration. Now gems are incorporated into the field. The look will evolve as we move on, but I have to solve a couple of functional design issues before. One is to constrain particles to the surface (but only partially, remember the beginning?). #houdini #WIP #3d

This was the first test of the concept, just to get a feel for the aesthetics and the direction of the technical setup. (This is not yet a functional design.). Now, as we have refined the setup, we can make a new iteration, incorporating gems into the design. #3d #houdini #WIP

The tweaked geometric flow of the field should match hard-surface objects better. The setup and basic tools are almost ready and we can move on to the actual geo. #3d #houdini #procedural #WIP

Getting closer! The field now follows the surface and swirls around the obstacles. Next: as our future external objects will have hard edges and geometric shapes, I want the field to look less organic, so let's adjust it in the next iteration. #houdini #WIP

Refined the setup, now it handles complex obstacles pretty well. 🫡.Next step is to build a velocity field that is closer to the intended one. After getting all conceptual and technical proofs I'll be able to move on to the actual geometry. #Houdini #WIP

Just a dirty test simulation despite the field is not even close to the desired one. (couldn't stand from trying). #houdini #WIP

Still having a battle with this one, but at least I got the direction. I'm finally able to influence the field with external objects taking into consideration their shape and scale. Next step is to build a proper field and play with a particle simulation. #houdini #WIP

The field follows the surface much better now. (We will refine it more a bit later). Next step is a bit challenging. I have to figure out how to properly influence the field with external objects.
