Hi evryone, I am a new Houdini user , I saw some Houdini artist works and I found it great. I ‘am loocking for a tutorial to explain me how to make ground destruction in Houdini , I found the work of Miguel Pérez Senent in a web site and It’s really what I want.
Thanks for Help

As far as I know, there arent any tutorials for ground breaking specifically. In real life production settings, there arent tutorials for all the effects. You have to take the tricks you know create a totally new effect.

What you will have to do is break down the effect, figure out what you want it to do - say you want to break the ground, then you want a layer of debris, then you want a layer of smoke. Figure it out one step at a time and you will accomplish your goal.

I think there is an FX tutorial DVD at 3dbuzz.com that covers some of this
their site is down at the moment…not sure why, but keep checking back…

I will try,
Thanks For Help , both of you.
