Houdini Indie: Procedural Metal Plates

A fun network demonstrating how to create a 100% procedural metallic plates! Contains comments and colorization of different areas of logic, and is a great example of:

• Using Voroni fracturing and cluster control to create geometric shapes from a simple grid.
• Using silhouette information for placement of rivets and bolts within complex shapes.
• Preserving rivet position and orientation data so that copied objects maintain consistent spacing post-deformation.
• Using bend deformers to achieve complex shapes and forms.
• and so much more!
