BIO
Started in 1981 with graphical simulation of industrial robots - part of my studies of math in Stuttgart (Germany). Then, by accident, 1984 Bavaria Film asked me to do computer animations for Enemy Mine (director Wolfgang Peterson, produced in Munich, Germany). That was my start into the more creative part of the business. From there on til 1991 i worked as an animation designer with several sorts of software (BTS FGS 4000, TDI, ...). We did commercial animations but tought students (from the Stuttgart Academy of Art) as well (half-half). After that i had the opportunity to make a move into event and "classical" design business. And there I still am - doing mostly print design in a little agency I am running with some friends. I kept always an eye on the 3D business, but only with the appearance of Vue d'Esprit on Mac i found a sort of way back into 3D graphics. This software for me is the ideal combination of easy-to-use and quality results so it was great fun to work with from the first moment on. Let's see where this all will drift to - who knows.

Looks very good, Walther! Not the Bay of Naples, but... Smoke and fire are looking great!

Looks very good to me too Walther! Can you make wavy smoke?
chippwalters
Looking good! Can you get it to swirl a bit? Maybe more turbulence in the texture?

Reminds me of my mom's house in Arkansas. The neighbor always seem to have a bonfire going.

Great composition and mood! Regarding the smoke, it's possible to combine this with something like meta-clouds? Just an idea...

You said it, "is a not too bad result" , really ! ;-) The fire is fine, smoke too ! As said Jilly and Chippwalters : the smoke might look even better, if it varied a little more (swirl, colour/density ?). But already there, as it is, it's fine ! Cough... :-)
