FlameThrower v15

Here I'm using multiple programs to help me capture this effect. There is still a little tweaking needed but I feel like the over all effect has a realism effect.

Fuel - Nparticles and dynamic fluids in Maya 14
Fire - FumeFX
Comp - Nuke

FumeFx Flamming Tours

Here a quick render with some wavelet turned on. I still need to get use to the scale and attributes.

FumeFX R&D Playblast

Some interesting effect will be create with FumeFX. The more time I spent learning the more I start to enjoy its intelligent codding. 

Here is a little render of what I have so far. 

Test 2

FumeFX Plug-in

Having so much fun learning FumeFX. Afterworks - Sitni Sati are the provide for this beautiful plugin on Maya and 3ds Max. Its only be an hours or so and my render are coming out better and better. Here is a quick one for you guys:

1st Render

As the night goes on, we will see my progression. Hopefully by the morning I can get a good flame thrower going !

Render FlameThrower_V13 with SUoP

Here is a short render showing the light emission off of the fluid dynamics.

SOuP Plug-in in use

Made a few changes on the lighting side as well as the fluid dynamics.

I am going to up res this 90 base resolution using the SOuP script. 

The plug in adds about 30 seconds to my render time, but I do think the small amount of detail that it adds is quite help full.
