Description
I realised from my 1st WIP that I hadnt put Volumetric Shadows on....hence why the density looked weak. In addition the clouds looked odd with that twist variation. After looking at some Tornado images on the web it was evident that such storms would come from naturally formed low dense clouds.
This is the result of a much darker version & I've also amended the curve to make the devil twist at a more agressive angle to the cloud bank. No postwork other than framing & text.
The cloud is a bit noisy! Rendered actual size at AA3 in 4 hrs
Strong Crits welcomed.

You made this, Warren!:) It looks much better ... It is the really day of judgement! ... but, i think you can make even better(Rocks and stones... added to a tornado);)

Much more realistic Desert Dust Devil, moving along nicely. I've seen my share of both Tornadoes and Devils living in the Texas Desert and Tornado alley in Kansas. Tornadoes form from lowering Wall Clouds of strong Thunderstorms and are very destructive. DDs can form out of clear blue skies, just a vortex of wind reaching the ground and picking up everything small in it's path and tossing it around, not nearly as strong as a Tornado. Peace

This is looking much better Woz!....the decision to lose the swirly sky was spot on...the gritty upper atmos looks superbly ominous...it's making it more like a Tornado now....Excellent work!....BTW...cool addition of the buildings to give a sense of scale.
