Arcane style explosion (UE5)

Hey all,
I was working on this arcane style explosion and would love some feedback on it. Was just making this to test a specific niagara feature. But I think I might be able to clean this up and use it as a portfolio piece.

It does look like giphy destroyed the quality of the gif…

I’d probably make the grenade rise from the ground faster and the slow down as it approaches the spot it explodes.

you could try to make a more defined explosion then use the smile as an quick impact frame. maybe the smile could pop like a lightning flash with an afterimage. So bright blue for an instant then change to a blackish/gray and fade out with no scale in or out.

Hey Cel,

Yeah that some solid suggestions.
I didn’t fully like the explosion yet (doesn’t feel like a high point in the effect) so I might add some more ellements and play around with some timing.
And yeah the fading face sounds like a cool one to try out for sure.

Ill give that a go and post back when I have an update! Thanks!

Didn’t have a lot of time to look at this, but here is a bit of an update on it!
