Modeled in Maya, fur simulation done in Houdini with Vellum, then exported back into Maya for render with Redshift.

The project was inspired by a Dr. Seuss look, but rendered in 3D. Fur simulation is something I’ve been meaning to tackle for a while - the pipeline is difficult to figure out at first but once I got it ironed out everything went pretty smoothly!
To save time on rendering, I strove to have most of the fur elements be rendered as stills. However, to add in some extra movement I rendered the puffballs as stills and projected them onto moving cards in Nuke - allowing for more movement in the final piece while still being render time friendly.
