How can I emulate this look?

[Roosterbooster]

Hi guys, I have volunteered to do some shots at work for employee of the month and I want to do an exagerrated "hero" look for a laugh like the pic attached. I know how to light the subject, make a good selection and put them into an appropriate background but does anyone know of a book or video tutorial that will show me how to incorporate atmospheric elements such as smoke, dust, fire, sparks, rain, snow and how to tie the elements together to look realistic? If it had downloadable resources to practise with that would be perfect!
