Fireman (Not an actual fireman)


First time working with fire and the warp tool. I know the fire shape doesnt look natural but its decent for a first attempt. Didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted it to tho.

Overall, the image is very cool (or should I say hot). Good job.

The fire is pretty good. I think what it needs is a bit more randomness; the flames are too even. Flames get whipped by the wind and the wind they themselves make, and spike higher or lower depending on the intensity of the fuel. So some flames will lick above others. Also I think you have too many of them growing downward. Unless there is a great external wind, flames make their own breeze and generally shoot up or out and up. But most of all, I think they are just too even.

One other thing, I think the legs of your fireman ought to peek through the flames here and there. As dense as the fire is, it opens at the top of the funnel and should have a break here and there. Otherwise the guy just looks cut off at the knees :mrgreen:

VERY nice!! Fire can be tricky and you very nearly pulled it off. As Clare said, the fire is a little too even and also out of scale - the flames should be bigger in relation to the fireman. The fireman himself is very good.
