Hey, I've been trying forever to create a true-to-show DBZ aura in 3DSMax (I have version 7) and though I have a small method, its not especially realistic or render-friendly. I want to make it just like in DBZ, of course having a cavity in the middle like a real aura. This is for video, so it should be as good quality as possible.
I'd prefer it weren't geometry, but if it looks good I'll take what I can get. Sprites are nice as long as they work in most/all views. If its an effect from a plugin (freeware or bought and paid for, it doesn't matter; I already use ChaosPhoenix) that's cool as well. I just want to get something that can b identified as a DBZ aura.
If you know any methods for this, have a tutorial, a prebuilt sprite or know a plugin that will wok well for this, please share it! Anything I use it in, I will credit you as "assistant efects design".
I look forwad to seeing your ideas!
