Any suggestions on how I can make realistic looking jet engine exhaust with Carrara? Screenshots of the fog or cloud settings would be of great help. Thanks in advance! By the way, it's for the plane in the above link.

Here's the relevant section of an image I produced recently. I'm using Ray Dream Studio 5.5, but I think the cloud functions are still the same. The exhaust is an elongated cloud sphere with the following settings: Color: (dark gray) Container: Sphere Quantity of Clouds: 1.50 Cloud Size: 0.80 Density: 0.20 Edge Falloff Size: 50% Quality: 300% The jets I used were F86 Sabrejets (the jet preferred by the Japanese for fighting giant monsters due to their ability to carry a massive payload of harmless, inaccurate bottlerockets) The F86 was a greasy, smokey beast so you might lighten up on the gray for your sleek modern jet. That's a great model, by the way, and the streaking on the surface adds a lot to the image.
