Thank you!
I don’t know about a 3ds plugin that breaks things…maybe some 3dsmax expert can help about it.

Hey Lino this is really great!
I really like how the explosion is growing and the whole timing of the shot!
The reaction of the bridge seems so real!
nothing to crit to me, can’t wait to see it finish! 
Here’s my final entry! A big thank to Carlo Cestra for the file hosting (che manco ce lo sapeva che cacchio era)!

Hi Lino thats fantastic work !
can you tell me what a typical render time is for the explosive cloud element?
and was that fume or afterburn? …something else?
Thank you Pengo, and thank you Phildog.
The animation and render is made in Lightwave 3D, and the cloud is made using Hypervoxels.
Render time is variable, from 5 minute to about 40, considering the presence of realistic motion blur.
Nice work Lino, I like the dynamics and the atmosfear of the entire shot too…
If I have to destroy a bridge, I surely will call you! 
See you!
Alessandro Pandolfi
The effects looks so great!
Your work is very good!!!
Nice Lightwave application!
“你很牛”----That means:You are eximious guy!
Haha!congratulation
Top work Lino, loved War of the Worlds (re-make) especially from the first one coming out of the ground to the whole bridge blowing up and car escape!
