cgSide covers more terrain-building tips showing how to use Height Fields to create cliffs in Side FX Houdini.

cgSide covers some more procedural workflow tips in Houdini, including how to make large-scale cliffs using Height Fields in Houdini 20.

Two other relevant tutorials from cgSide cover working with cliff faces. This tutorial shows how to add more details to height fields. Visit that tutorial here.

On look-dev and texturing, cgSide dove into using both Houdini Karma and Material X to create textures for a cliff asset, keeping the workflow procedural. Visit that tutorial here.

The tutorial covers an overview of the setup, but if you want to see more, it’s on cgSide’s patreon.
