TurbulenceFD experiments: Rocket Launch

[Rove]

Hi all,

I'm experimenting with Lightwave and TurbulenceFD's trial version. I thought I'd share one with the community. I just finished the previsualisation of a rocket launch:

TurbulenceFD opens up possibilities to realize things I imagined doing in Lightwave.

Looking pretty cool!

Very nice.

Thunderbirds are go!

Could be really sweet if you work a little more on the general overall scene, change point of view to ground, add a nice background, add ramp and shuttle perhaps, tweak the smoke shader a little with more internal light scattering.

Anyway nice test.

Thnx all,

I'm pretty pleased with the behavior of the smoke. I got a little spare time comin' up next month. I'll see if I can spice things up.
