Muzzle Flash Test

These are some muzzle flash test I did last night. The first test shows a custom muzzle flash and tracers. No animation on the gun or light effects. The camera shake was scripted to give the gun more weight. The 2nd test adds rotation to the muzzle flash.

Snow Particle Test

This is a snow particle test done with Particular. The first particle system is generating 30,000 particles in the first field and for the second I added another particle system generating 1,000 more particles in the 2nd field for the particles closest to the camera to help with the illusion of depth.
