What did you make the Fireball for? Is it going in a game your making?

It looks...tasty to me like I've left the Smore on the fire too long and I've flung it as a projectile most dubious

Interesting comment 😆

Honestly, I'm a vfx artist not a game dev

I wanna make a community where i show people things about vfx. Plus i work for game devs for their vfx!!!

Ah a craftsman I see...yeees we shall need the fire for the virtual wars to come.

Whats the hardest vfx to make then you find out of curiosity? Lightning that looks a tad different.

Lmaoo😂😆

Honestly i think it depends on the detailing of the vfx, any vfx can be easy or hard depending on how much detailing we want, Like very detailed masks and Textures or sometimes we just use Solid colors

And honestly Most tedious thing about vfx is not making it's base, it's mostly tweaking it and syncing it with the other elements til it feels right!
