What I'm up to..

Well, after creating those few fire effects that I did. I started getting more in depth with it. Trying to really understand what created the effect I was looking at and absorb it so I could create it on the fly. Well that lead me to basically start all over again. I procured a massive amount of tutorials and I have been immersing myself in them. I'm starting back at the basics..not trying to jump in with fluids like I did but I am starting with particles and realizing how powerful they really can be. It's amazing how many things I am finally understanding as a whole instead of just a fraction of it like before. With this new knowledge I think I can create even better effects..now I just need to find out how to make them look realistic texture wise.
