Rendered a bunch of photographic illustrations using Houdini and Redshift for Inktober 2019 using @jakeparker 's official prompt list. The spirit of Inktober is to encourage us to revisit a fundamental form of creating illustrations - inking - to reignite the passion we artists had when we started out! With that, I designed my month-long “3D-tober” exercise to be entirely void the technicalities of the compositing process to free up my creativity!

Everything was rendered directly using @sidefxhoudini and @redshift3d , and using Redshift’s Post Fx for flares, and blooms. I must say, it’s VERY fun! Till the next October! Meanwhile, here are some work in progress images / screenshots of my process. Cheers!

The time is ripe!
[31] Ripe

Bam! And I'm done for Inktober! It was difficult trying to finish each and every single day! So I failed. Missed a few days. But hey, not bad for a full "3Dtober" daily render attempt! Learnt a lot about image making and had a lot of fun with Houdini and Redshift.

Till next October! @jakeparker

Uh, what happened to my ride?
[29] Injured

Had to destroy the motorbike from Inktober[28] for this! Posed this guy using Mixamo, and Houdini really shines when I need to just quick add some smoke, and accident debris in the scene. It also helps that Redshift renders volumes in Houdini with almost no setup!

It's back to work from a gooood long weekend! And oh! Inktober is ending soooon!

Vroom!
[28] Ride

Some fun with a hard surface subject. It's quite difficult to showcase a vehicle in a vertical format. Perhaps I should have done a top-down kind of composition. Oh well! Yet another inktober day!

A social setting.
[27] Coat

These figures look kinda spooky and cool at the same time. As always, Houdini and Redshift! I wish I did this in 3D coat, so that I can make a pun.

Generated forms in Houdini and had fun with lighting and shading in Redshift! Quick one!

It was very fun conceptualising this piece! Tried abusing Redshift's camera parameters for this vertical defocusing effect. Fun stuff. Almost Friday!

Oh yes, swipe for behind-the-scenes stills!

Greek? I think so. Some ancient civilisation.
[23] Ancient

Made some destruction of the temple in Houdini, put some cool lights in Redshift. And bam! @inktober done. Swipe to the end for a screenshot BTS. And I just swung my knee into my bed frame by accident. I'm in pain 😥

It was difficult deciding if it should be a friendly ghost, or a scary ghost. Now, it's somewhere in between. Haha!

Dropped a bunch of gold coins in Houdini, place the dragon from [12] Dragon in there, and rendered the scene in Redshift.

Here's a quick one to catch up. A quick vellum grains simulation in Houdini, rendered in Redshift.

Light saber dragon. Is he on the dark side?
[12] Dragon

Modelled and rendered in Houdini and Redshift. Had some fun with the procedural veins and the laser beam using Redshift strands which is super well-integrated with Houdini's pscale attribute. Love it when I can call any attribute I want when shading!

Posed, in Maya, a free dragon rig found on @turbosquid3d I believe this model is by @stellanjoerdens

Ice Kacang! Haha!
[11] Snow

Recreated a Redshift version of the snow shader I created in Arnold a couple years ago. Not quite there yet, but that's all the time I have for Inktober. Redshifts noise nodes are a great joy to use! something about Arnold's SSS is really beautiful.

Quick one today! Scatter some cubes in Houdini to form a simple pattern, and art directed the color randomisation in Redshift :) @sidefxhoudini

Donut try this at home.
[09] Swing

Had this silly "Swing" concept in my head for the whole day! Ooops, lagging behind by a day. It's "Pattern" next! With Houdini, it should be easy one.
