Okay so I did have a few hours of free time to work on this guy during the last few days, after all. I made the forearms smaller and also added a bit more curvature to them, added some minor details, cleaned up some geo and made a new head.

I personally spent some time studying Houdini decade or more ago but found a company would be reluctant to build their toolset on Houdini base. Same story in a way with Substance Designer actually which nobody uses really but me. Then I found all I ever wanted to do in Houdiny like complex arrays and scatter systems are…
