Yeah its an odd project and honestly we tried Maya, C4D and Houdini and Soft was the best option! Basically have a bunch of growing textures UV mapped onto tracked geometry to simulate a spreading ink/paint looking thing. Simulations were too difficult to control, too much R&D and didn't allow us to tweak little parts of the effect or create seams, etc. Made a crap load of offset animated textures, brought them into the render tree, moved a bunch of texture supports around and done. Looks/works great...just hit a ceiling with the node limit. Oh well.
