I question it being better than my previous attempt at it mainly because of the
multiple
media containers used seem to almost defy a harmonious coexistence.
I struggled to get the three parts to blend together and had to settle for this.
The 3 parts are the funnel, dust plume and whatever the secondary, halo funnel is
called.
To make a more suitable environment I darkened the sky and added a farm house
however this is still a quick test only so no AA and small res (160,120), also
fast-motion
at just 60 frames.
If it's better or worse I wouldn't mind at all hearing either comment, thanks.
Bob

looks better. have you looked at the movie twister lately? i'm sure
you could get ideas from that. if you have a dvdrom drive, there are
ways to get still images from dvds to your computer so you can study the
effects upclose. i have about 3000 images from star trek first contact
spanning about 3 and 1/2 minutes. it's very enlightening. since i'm
working on the xwing right now, i wish star wars was on dvd. vhs just
doesn't cut it for closeup comparisons. anyway, good luck with the
tornado, i'm interested to see how far you take it.

If I could ever get the individual parts to not work against each other
I might make some headway with it. The 3 media containers
have to become very dense in order to block all else, yet the color
goes black. I've seen Twister and recall how dark those tornadoes
were in it, makes one wonder... obvious from many real life ones
that they can appear very light gray sometimes, except for the ground
dust plumes.
I've taken DVD stills from War of the Worlds so I could use them to
compare with my Martian War Machine model I had done years ago.
Never have gone back into that to adjust on it. I think you're right, that
can make for a great method when trying to copy such things.

The part I like better in this one is the rows of vegetation on the ground.
Seems that the tornado is moving too quickly along the ground.

Actually dirt there, supposed to be freshly plowed furrows but the scale is off.
Since
you
mentioned it though I'm going to add some starting crops in when I rescale.
The motion is greatly sped up across the ground for "action", however it might not be
too wrong on the rotation. Something I should maybe try and apply more realism too,
I agree.
