Penguin Drop

Time for an ice breaker.

Do not worry about the penguin, he is a professional stunt-penguin trained in the art of breaking into a million pieces. He will return in future projects.

This piece was an experiment in using a VDB simulation as a debris source to shatter ice while scattering particles in the form of ice chips. There are areas that could serve with some tweaking, but I think the overall effect turned out pretty well. Definitely an effect I'd like to take another crack at further down the line.
