Video Training →Houdini Beginner Challenge Learn by Project Modeling, Lighting, Shading a Coffee Cup

Welcome to this Houdini course where you will learn the workflow from the very beginning with an empty scene to the final rendered image.
Houdini is definitely the most powerful 3D package out there, and it can be quite intimidating for a beginner with a very steep learning curve, but it doesn't have to be.
The problem is:
Learning, just for learning, can be demotivating if you don't see the progress, or if you work on very long projects that you don't get to finish.
The solution is:
You want to practice a lot on plenty of small projects
Projects where you can see progress at every stage
Projects that you can actually finish and add to your portfolio
This course does just that, it's part of a series of small Houdini challenge Projects.
You will learn:
