Hey Guy's

I used an explosion from the visor in a short film that i made called Hnady J Dandy.
It's towards the end but thought you might like to check it out.

You can view it here.

hmmm, nice short, though I hope you do not take offense, but I think that using stock footage of explosions may have been better. That explosion seemed a bit like watching a lava lamp motion.

Anyway good effort.

Yeah, no offense taken. I just wanted play around with maya.

First recommendation would be to take down the opacity...Then...I would work on blending the base of the explosion into the house tops a bit, it kind of looked like you just slapped it on top. Keep workin at it!
