Ohhh, I'd love to know how you got that Starball to dissolve down to an Ico Sphere at the end. Very cool indeed!
Thank you, Miss B! The effect was accomplished with particles, as you most likely suspected. I'd make a tutorial but there's already dozens of videos out there which show many variations of the same technique. Here's a link to an easy one: Dust in the wind dissolve tutorial
The Icosahedron was just a separate object I hid inside the starball which revealed itself as the dissolve effect reached the end.
Ohhh, I should've realized that's how you set it up, but now that you mention it, it makes perfect sense. Thanks for the tutorial link, as I'm going to go check it out.
