Hi everyone,
I completed the online tutorial of CMIVFX about Houdini Caustics and I have to say I really like it! Here is the end result I rendered. It took me 14 hours on my mbp 13" core2duo 2.4GHZ (NEED A NEW MACHINE).
I bought the CMI value package a few weeks ago and I started documenting my roadtrip. You can follow it at http://blog.annova.eu, I'm planning to post my progress one / two times a week.
