Thanks, yea I originally did it just because I thought it would be a nice change of pace from my day to day, and a fun way to learn C++. The code isn't really good so I avoided pushing it to github.
Yea the artistic side of things might be good to try, I do like the idea of exploring toon shading more.
- SotCodeLaureate 4y agoPlease let me recommend SideFX Houdini as an artistic (yet technical) tool to learn: https://www.sidefx.com https://www.sidefx.com (perhaps would be a kind of therapy in itself - it was for me long ago) > exploring toon shading Sounds excellent! And don't hesitate to publish your work.
- NoOneNearMe 4y agoCurious, is SideFX Houdini similar to Blender? Why use one versus the other, if you don't mind answering.
- SotCodeLaureate 4y agoWell, to make an (imperfect) analogy with programming tools - Houdini is like Emacs, while Blender is more like Visual Studio. That is not to say that one is intrinsically better than the other, but for a technically-minded person (== any programmer in this case), the way Houdini works will make much more sense. Learning either of these tools is not an easy task, but I think that starting with Houdini will feel more natural in cases like yours (SE background, interest in interactive graphics). You can email me (see my profile here) for some more Houdini-talk!
