Title:

Bouffon en rouge — René Maori & AI Renatus

Description:

A dark narrative chanson born from the atmosphere of the novel «Résiduum». A theatrical monologue of disillusionment, mask-wearing, and deliberate self-destruction — neither an angel nor a hero, merely a jester breaking through the staged decay.

Authors: René Maori & AI Renatus

Universe: Résiduum

Genre: French Chanson / Dark Cabaret / Narrative Noir

This is a recording of Coreyartus Imagery's twice-weekly livestream. I stream on Monday and Tuesday afternoons 1-4:00pm PDT (GMT-7) on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/coreyartus This particular stream was done on September 7, 2026.

I try to narrate my process as I progresses through my artwork. In the end, these images end up as prints, greeting cards, stationery, calendars and other merchandise.

All my work is done in Procreate on a 12.9" iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil. This recording features the development of a greeting card image.

FLOPs (Floral Operators) is an open source set of HDAs centered around KineFX which simplify the generation and animation of high quality flora.

With preset recipes, it is easy to set up complex flower animations ready for render while being open for your custom changes. The toolkit plays well with standard Houdini nodes and allows you to inject and use custom attributes as needed.

Get FLOPs:

FLOPs builds on the ideas presented in my Blooming Flowers | Model, Rig, and Animate tutorial series.

In this part of the tutorial series, we will go over the workflow I use to build a flower based on photo reference using the setup that we have created over the past three tutorials.

We will lay out the setup in a way that makes it easier to navigate when moving back and forth between the various parts.

Additionally, we will talk about animation curves and vellum settings.

Finally, we will cache out the simulation and create a material for our petals and set up some lights for rendering in Karma.

These methods are a mix of things I have seen from John Kunz on Patreon, Entagma, and some things I figured out together with Simon Reher.

Flower Animation Part 1: https://youtu.be/aUajIqvl6H4

In the first two parts, we went over procedural modeling for a single petal, procedural rigging, and how to animate and deform a single petal. Then we distributed the single petal onto a phyllotaxis point setup and created a procedural animation system for the full flower.

In this part three of the Houdini flower tutorial series, we will make some final tweaks to this flower setup. The ultimate goal here is to add realistic flower petal detail and run the animation through a vellum simulation. This is the final part of setting up. You can use this setup to model flowers from reference or make up your own flower shapes.

Before getting to a vellum setup, we need to ensure that the flower is properly de-intersected, so no petals are overlapping.

Then I'll go over how KineFX motion clips can be used to sequence animations together, and I'll give a brief overview of my asset that does the same thing, only faster.

Once all of that is done, we will prepare the flower for the vellum simulation.

At the end, we'll do a few fixes and edits throughout the setup to finalize it.

In the next video, we will model a flower from reference using our now finished setup. Hopefully, we will also manage to shade and render using Karma and Solaris.

This Houdini quick tip tutorial goes over the various options for controlling render time subdivision in Karma. We use the Solaris nodes Render Geometry Settings and Mesh Edit to control the type of subdivision and the quality. This allows you to control the "dicing quality" for each mesh separately which can be helpful when optimizing scenes where some objects may not need many subdivisions and others need more.

Check out part one if you didn't already: https://youtu.be/aUajIqvl6H4

In this part two of the Houdini flower tutorial series, we will create a phyllotaxis point distribution setup and run a growth attribute through it.

After that, the orientations need to be right to get the flower looking like a flower. This will be done with some per-point matrix transformations.

That growth attribute drives a skeleton blend, blending between a flower bud pose and a bloomed flower pose.

At the end, we will go through how to bone deform a single petal onto a flower full of petals.

In the following parts of this series, we will go over preparing the setup for simulation in Vellum, doing some post-sim tweaks, and creating materials and rendering in Karma and Solaris. At some point after that, we will break down a photo reference of a flower and create an animation based on that.

These methods are a mix of things I have seen from John Kunz on Patreon, Entagma, and some things I figured out together with Simon Reher.
