As allways Ash, really nice!

[MadJik]

Nice!
It works as well for fireworks!

[staker]

Madjik, i really like your fireworks.
and ash, its an great tut. I need to try it out

[oma]

tried the tut out Ash only problem I had was with what light settings you have for the flower i kept getting shading on wrong side. but went with it anyways.

the leaves I did were same flower shape no centre 3d cylinder all default settings except light which I turned off. think they came out well.

[Ash]

Thanks to all

Madjik, Nice use of the method and make more use of it

Oma, Very good using the same pattern for the leaves

Nice to see people are going beyond the tut

Wow Ash! Great work ... I've put you at Number 1 of my Tutors ... along with Madjik .. Sorry you'll have to share. Try not to elbow each other now!

[MadJik]

For the fireworks (quick info):

1. Primarycolor= transparent (alpha=0), secondary color=white, background is black, add a new layer.
2. Gradient Bars: Bottom,scale=50%
3. Add some sparkles...


4. Shape3D (Light:Off,scaling=1,3, X-axis=127°, antialias:on lvl=5)
etc..

Ash, awesome tutorial as always. The only thing is that I would echo Bob's sentiment that I prefer text. :?

Madjik...great fireworks!

[Bob]

(there are already lots of text in the image)

Yeah, but if dA is down (bankrupt, server maintenance...), I will not be able to read it

I understand I will add "some" text to this tut a bit later.

You can also download the full view version from dA for safe keeping
