Okay, i'm lazy. i couldn't find it myself.
i know i've seen the smoke coming
out of the missle launcher effect out
there some where. it was from a company,
not home made. i think there were other
effects as well.
thanks for any help.

www.armorcast.com is the company producing them - lots of great stuff there.

Thanks shenlung!

some of them look almost too big to be practical.

yeah. I made a thread a while back about this. still haven't got my own made yet, sadly.

I know what you mean about some of them. I mean, I am not sure why you would want to use the armorcast flame thrower effects. They are pretty big.

No problem on the link - I've seen some pretty cool stuff come form Armorcast recently.

Now if I just had more spare time and disposable income....

Those cinematic effects are a nice accessory.

Are they cast in metal?

Yes they are, I think the only way to make the flames practical is to make molds of the pewter ones then re-cast them in silicone, that way they would be huge, light weight, flexible, and they wouldn't be tottaly opaque. So you could see through them a little. Otherwise thole only practical use for them really is for flamers on vehichles like the immolatir or a dreadnought.

for smoke you could try cotton wool teased out and rolled in some black chalk/pastel or charcoal dust - glue in place with white glue.

You can also use 0000 steel wool as black smoke, in a thickcoat of white glue it will be almost as stron as the plastic.
