Hi Rune,

An excellent animation! I think it looks very real. The
only slight problem might be that it seems a little
thick at the start. From my cig days, I remember the
speed of the rising smoke slowing down considerably
as it gets further away from the burning embers. That
would make the smoke quite a bit thinner at the start,
catching up with itself as it cools and slows. And I can
see all the smoke on my monitor and the wonderful
dissipation at the top.

Still, I think it's convincing enough to use in it's present
form. How long does it take to render and on what
hardware?

Great job!
