New In Houdini 20: Feathers 02 - Grooming Feathers

Houdini 20 is out and the literal poster child of this release is the new Feather workflow. And this really is a whole workflow, because it offers tools not only for creating feathers but also for creating a whole plumage, simming and rendering. So, let's take a look at all of it. In this episode we build a plumage from the templates we created in episode one using the standard Houdini grooming tools as well as something a bit more procedural.
