Can anybody explain how to make it looks like smoke is coming from the tires like when burning out? Whenever I try to make the smoke it always looks like crap. Can anybody please explain how to make it look good? Thanks :)

send a private message to ci5ic. He did a great job with a picture under "can anyone do any better for me please" look at it! He is good with smoke.

For that picture that jsb88 is referring to, I went out and found an image of someone burning out and kinda chopped the smoke into the original picture. was actually kinda tough because the smoke is transparent, and you don't want the background of the donor picture to show up in the original. I also found some pictures of fire and hella tweaked them and chopped them into the original too... Unless you can find a decent smoke plugin, it'd be really really really hard to create your own smoke and have it look realistic...

in eyecandy it has a cool smoke effect but i dont think it would suit burning tires cause it aint that kinda smoke......its more of like a bonfire smoke........(dont know if you will understand wat im sayin but if u say it you would)

i used eyecandy on my photochop competition 6 pic. imo eyecandy seems like cheating cause i'm not actually drawing the smoke by myself unlike what ci5ic did. tell me what you think of my pcc6 pic.

Which one is your entry?
