FXWars! TORNADO floju, F3 ,FREEFORM

#1

hey guys

ok, i’ll give this a try.
it will approximately take place in a wide field destroying a small barn.
i was thinking of including some unlucky sheeps or cows but not sure yet! hehe

already started with some particle and rigid body fx in maya.
will post some tests when i’ve added more debris and stuff, probably tomorrow.

i dont have any footage yet, because i’m currently abroad and don’t have the possibility to shoot something here… so first i’ll be concentrating “just” on the FX.

skål from copenhagen!

hej,

here a first test...
but still a lot of things to tweak and to add.
background will also be replaced by some other footage.

i'll probably post a first image sequence tomorrow.

constructive criticism is welcome! : )
#3

looks like an excellent start
could maybe use a bit more noise in the condensation funnel and the debris cloud edges seem to stop a bit abruptly…

looking forward to seeing that beauty in action though

Very cool! Agree with the above comments :slight_smile:

#5

thx, guys for your comments! i totally agree. will work on it!

#6

little update.

tweaked the debri clouds and the funnel a bit.
currently rendering a short sequence.

i used those images as a reference.

if one of you still needs some reference videos, check out tornadovideos.net. some nice footage there!
