I have a picture in Bryce Sfi called "The Watchers" and I was wondering if any suggestions on how to show realistic heat coming from the thrusters. I was thinking maybe just useing blur but wanted to hear a few more ideas. Thanks

how about making a ripple on a new layer and fiddling with the opacity

http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=1056987&Start=1&Artist=thundering1&ByArtist=Yes If the image in this link is an example of what you're looking for: Selected the area below the ships, copied to their own layer (Ctrl+J) Applied a HEAVY Ocean Ripple filter - I may have even done a Poster Edges filter after that - then changed the layer mode to Overlay. Played with Levels (Ctrl+L) a bit until is was darker, richer, but clipped the blacks so you can see detals underneath. Masked (or you can Erase) it for soft edges like the air is evening out. Hope that helps.

Excellent solution for that would be the wave filter, play around with the options and you`ll get the heat turbulence that you looking for ;) Tihomir
Open your mind and share the knowledge!
