Since everything repetitive edits are non-destructive much more than MoGraph, it might replace Cinema4D in this few years in my workflow. Therefore I would like to write down some memos for beginners. --- ## Plugins - [qLib](http://qlab.github.io/qLib/): Most popular open-source plugins - [Aelib](https://github.com/Aeoll/Aelib): Digital Assets for Half-Regular Polyhedra --- ## Study Resources ### Nice Tutorials - [SideFx Offical Tutorials](https://www.sidefx.com/tutorials/): 最初の勉強には良い. - [ENTAGMA](http://www.entagma.com/): シミュレーション系の面白いアルゴリズム多数. - [Anastasia Opara](https://vimeo.com/anopara): 女性 Houdini ユーザー.

Some of below studies are rendered using Octane for Houdini, but I'm already bored for the photorealism so have been trying to use Mantra such as header image. ::
