my noob-ish attempt at a steampunk dreidel. Happy to get something done, even if I have a long way to go to learn Houdini.

My attempt at something very last minute. Not a whole lot of modelling, but still fun.
I did use a couple textures from GSG.

Great work so far folks!!

Looking through this thread before posting my efforts for today's prompt has me excited about what the animation thread might have in today, and certainly has me wanting to up my game a bit if I do any more these this month.

Regardless, for now, I'll constrain myself to viewport renders for extra xp

GLHF!

See you around!
