Nice effects! I'll have to give this a try some time. I've never even touched vfx in maya. What kind of tutorials did you begin with to start experimenting in vfx?

[silmusashi]

@megtan3D: I cannot point out which tutorials I begin with. The thing is I learn a bit of this, a bit of that and combine them together.

wow, this is really cool, i'd love to know how you did that final shot =)

[silmusashi]

@MrBHearnden: First of all, I created an emitter which was parented to the large missle. This missle animated along a curve. Then, the emitter will emit a number of particles at a certain point. These particles will move randomly in a spherical space. After that, I turn on 2 attracted objects (one is the curve, one is the target point on the ground) and the particles will move a long the curve and also go to the target point. While moving, the particles emit secondary particles.
