Ok Its really hard you need to have a mask of some clouds and set them up in a spike pattern then use twirl and start painting and use blur effects as needed and then skew it....Hmm Iam not very good at explaining things sorry ........If I had time I will do a tut on it.......8)

Funky! What did you render it in? I've been wanted transparent thruster glows for some time but never found a way to go about it...

  Well if you use TS4.2 like I did then you would repaint the thruster texture and use plain transp and set it to black

All you gots to do is put the coloured thruster map as the transparency map. The white is solid white, the blue is semi-tranparent and the black is fully transparent. In theory.

Good work :yes:

Psycho! My good buddy...


What reflectance shader did you use for those thrusters? Phong? Caligari Metal? Plastic? I can never get realistic looking thrusters like that...
