Looking for magic spell effects

jakku

Hi :)

I am looking for magic spell effects, like fireballs, lightning, water/ice, arcane, holy and so on.

Anyone know of a good product, I have been looking around but I cannot really seem to find anything.

There are a few products here that give dragon fire effects, for example this one:

However for spell effects like magic missiles, fireballs etc the most complete collection are probably those offered by "TheToyman" over at Renderosity. They are png's, that means you add the effects after rendering, using something like Photoshop or Gimp.

Cool :)

Thank you!

Those mentioned above are some great choices, just wanted to add another that wasnt mentioned by Blondie9999 who has an all-purpose one as well: http://www.daz3d.com/fantasy-and-sci-fi-effects

Good Luck!

Although these are designed to fit specific figures, you can of course just manually put them anywhere regardless of the figure (or no figure):

"Lisa's Botanicals - Dead Bushes" is no longer in the store, but with some creativity the dead bushes actually worked well as electrical discharge when deleting the original material and applying some blue/purple ambient. Perhaps you can track her down (maybe over at Hivewire).

I would strongly suggest free resources by FrostBo. Lots of them.

Great, more good stuff :)

Thanks!

In addition to those already mentioned (most of which I have, and can attest that they are great products; I use them a lot), you might also want to check out the offerings by Nerd 3D -- especially the 'Smokin' Flames Tool; it's surprisingly versatile.

There's also this one by Smay: http://www.daz3d.com/fire-and-smoke-for-daz-studio. I like the results I've gotten with it. And for water and other liquids, try this: http://www.daz3d.com/liquid-pack. I also second the Hero FX sets; I've had fun with them, too.

Ok, do Any of the listed effects work in Bryce?

Those that are a done an image and a trans map will work in Bryce if exported from either Poser or DS. Mats will need adjusting to get them looking correct though

I have used Majik and ShadowCaster spell ribbons this way

Serene Night

I'd probably use brushes and post work spell effects in
