hmmm, 1minute 10 seconds per frame..  Not as fast as I hoped it would be...
(I hope I attached the right file...)

Hmm... Not too bad. I think it looked a little bit better before when it was
just the smoke. I can't put my finger on what exactly it needs to be better,
though.

I do like it! I think it looks MUCH MUCH better than the one that had the
fireball and it looks better than the one with only smoke.

Good work,

Fernando.

In that case, maybe I should make 2 versions :)

I think I know what I don't like about it: 1) It's going too slow. 2) The
fireball is a bit 'noisey'. I feel the color should be smoother, like in HE
Day's animation.

HE Day's animation doesn't have a fireball.  It's just a trail of smoke,
with the reflection of the fireball, but the fireball itself is hidden by a
lensflare.  I think I'll try this too.

i like this one better too - it's a bit hard to see the smoke effects
because of the low bitrate though

yes, I know.  Maybe I'll put some more time in the next test-animation: I'll render it
at
a larger resolution, and with a more interesting background :))
