Support on Patreon: Download HIP file for free: Check out part one if you didn't already: In the first part, we went over procedural modeling for a single petal, procedural rigging, and how to animate and deform a single petal. In this part two of the Houdini flower tutorial series, we will create a phyllotaxis point distribution setup and run a growth attribute through it. After that, the orientations need to be right to get the flower looking like a flower. This will be done with some per-point matrix transformations. That growth attribute drives a skeleton blend, blending between a flower bud pose and a bloomed flower pose. At the end, we will go through how to bone deform a single petal onto a flower full of petals. In the following parts of this series, we will go over preparing the setup for simulation in Vellum, doing some post-sim tweaks, and creating materials and rendering in Karma and Solaris. At some point after that, we will break down a photo reference of a flower and create an animation based on that. These methods are a mix of things I have seen from John Kunz on Patreon, Entagma, and some things I figured out together with Simon Reher.
