Description
Thanks for viewing.
I have been playing with fire tonight (virtually). Wanted to get some whispy real looking flames without using photos.
This is the result.
Created with volumetric textures. Each fire is three objects consisting of red, yellow and white volumetric textures. You can put these textures into any shape. Once you select a shape, copy and paste for the other two colours (don't use duplicate as it offsets too far). Next you need to move each of the objects very slightly away from each other (or it won't work).
3 different fireballs are available in the download section at my site:

LOL Is this your essay on what you did for Summer Vacation? I love the snapshot version you have displayed the fire in. Outstanding work!
I agree with Shari...are these your summer vacation pictures for "show and tell"? Excellent job, Scott! A+ from all school teachers, I'm sure! :^)
Fantastic fire effects and what a clever way to display them! I appreciate your efforts - thanks for the downloads. Love your images!!

I really like the way you've presented these images. This is the most realistic and impressive Vue fire work I've seen, the conflagration in the lower left image is especially spectacular. Thank you very much for sharing the fireball props, I hope to be able to credit you in an image using them soon!
