An update for 2018...
🕑 Added 2018-03-11 09:58:00 +0000 UTC So this will be one of the courses I'll release in 2018 - this setup including adding dynamics using both POP grains and bullet faux soft body techniques.I will also do a course on procedurally modelling this baseball and thread...

And then I've been asked to do a course on POP grains, so I might try to do that too, as that as well is gonna follow the traditional type of tutorial/course presentation...
As for my Houdini TD course, that has turned out to be a bit more tricky to organize than I anticipated as I want that to be focusing more on concepts, mindset and how to approach problem solving in Houdini - so it became a bit of a philosophical conundrum for me, figuring how to best present it... But I have a pretty good idea for how I will do that - check the comments to this post..
So I'm getting there. Kinda. :D

Yeah, when I release this course I'll leave the rendering to the viewers - I'm just gonna cover the net and some dynamics alternatives with grains and a bullet constraints faux softbody and perhaps the wire solver... Though perhaps not a bad idea to add a web-droplets part - or I'll just do that separately. But building a setup to get a good droplet/web connective surface and distribution could be fun. :) Something like this... <a href="http://www.imageafter.com/image.php?image=b16nature_animals_insects004.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.imageafter.com/image.php?image=b16nature_animals_insects004.jpg</a>

This is great, so tempted to render this with water droplets with some DOF!

cool, sounds like a goodplan, you have to start it and see how it goes!
Haha, no, it's more about the approach - the idea is i need to trigger my autopilot and just start doing my thing, and then I can hopefully use that as the audio - or as a script. Well, we'll see, lots of other stuff I gotta do before I can get into this thing so... :)

Got it! It will be very interesting. I'd be glad to be in the audience, let me know if you think it could work with skype or something
