optimus Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 Sincerest apologies for the nonexistant editing and lack of sound. I've been struggling with freeware encoders and this is the best I've come up with that doesn't run into >50mb... Prefire:http://www.apcforum.net/files/PreFire.jpg 1 1/4" 'stubby' fountain. Charcoal and Ft/Ti:http://www.apcforum.net/files/Fountain_1.mov Fanned 3/4" fountains, single 1" mine, and 30-shot 3/4" cake: http://www.apcforum.net/files/FountainMineCake.mov Was quite pleased with this lot, apart from the pace of the cake. Would've liked it to be substantially faster! I did like the Fe/Ti stars and flying fish combination - it gives a good layered effect to the cake. Those Ft/Ti stars are easily making it to the ground and then some... I think they'd look good in a waterfall shell.
pudidotdk Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 Good job with the fountain, although I couldn't see the Cake movie?
Mumbles Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Fixed the link. There was a missing W in the www part. Very nice looking cake by the way.
ewest Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Hey optimus, for the cake it looked like you had some small effect fuse or microstars mixed in with the (crap my mind just went blank) what-cha-ma-call-it...black powder that shoots the shell up...lift powder, that's it. Did you mix some small microstars or effects fuse in with the lift powder for each shot? Because whatever it was, it was a nice effect.
optimus Posted February 16, 2007 Author Posted February 16, 2007 Yup, It's all flying fish fuse, but not exactly mixed in with the lift... I placed a bundle ontop of each lift charge, before placing a star then wadding ontop of the fuse bundle.
deadman Posted February 17, 2007 Posted February 17, 2007 The fountains were definitley beasts. I do like the flying fish inserts as well. In my opinion your cake is the leader at this moment. Great job.
fight fire with fire Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Really good job. The flying fish looks awesome, maybe make the nozzle on the first fountain a bit smaller.
