LA HUG ONLINE - Highlights From Two Mardini Entries

Welcome to Mardini, the gauntlet that will push you to your limits daily. It will force you to find solutions, ANY solutions to get it done. You are creative, skilled, and ready to tackle it all. Then five days into this challenge you realize that you foolishly signed up yet again for 31 days of no sleep, crazy builds, rendering nightmares.... basically absolute mayhem for a month straight. At the end of it all you achieve Iron Heart status, find yourself pleased, waiting for your free T-Shirt, and ready for the next one. That is, once you finish sleeping for about a week.

For this LAHUG David Torno will be presenting select highlights from two of his Mardini entries. He will focus on his Houdini work for "Fantasy" (tree trunks and swaying vines) and "Valley" (simple art directed mountains).
