Not to mention, if you're doing any sort of Python or VEX coding, then Apprentice isn't a restriction at all. That's incredibly useful.

I only wish The Foundry were a little more flexible and Nuke Non-Commercial let you do that too.

Agreed Cristobal.

Outside of watermarking of renders (and lack of third party renderers), Apprentice is the full Houdini FX experience. It can be a smart idea to do your initial learning in Apprentice, especially considering Indie is a 12 month rental.

Mantra is a great renderer, so forcing yourself to learn it before moving onto a faster GPU renderer (e.g. you already own Redshift) is beneficial too.

        This is the wording on the purchase page. As I mentioned
        before, if you're using Houdini alongside another DCC, the
        income threshold SideFX are interested in only relates to
        income derived from Houdini itself.

        They don't police it in any way but if they see your name
        croping up in the credits of the next Star Wars epic, expect a
        visit from the SideFX heavies.  :)
