    No more waiting for hours – unleash your creativity with real-time adjustments.

     



     Dynamic Realism: Immerse your scenes in the chaos of explosive battles, cascading shockwaves, and shattering spaceships.







    Precision Control: Craft the perfect blast sequence with intuitive parameters such as time, scale, brightness, contrast, anisotropy, and vortex.
    Effortlessly shape the pace, intensity, and intricacy of your explosions.






    Infinite Variation: Create a diverse range of explosion scenarios, from fiery infernos to billowing plumes, using adjustable smoke and dust densities, along with customizable dust colors.


    Physical Accuracy: Unleash the power of thermodynamic simulations that generate intricate bulges and clouds, capturing the  essence of chaos.

    Force Dynamics: Seamlessly integrate the power of drag vectors
    to simulate the impact of external forces like gravity,
    adding an extra layer of realism to your explosions.








    PARAMETERS



    Time:
    Control the timing and speed of your explosion sequence with this parameter, ranging smoothly from 0 to 1. Create dramatic build-ups and rapid bursts with precision.

    Scale:
    Adjust the overall size of your explosion, allowing you to go from small-scale bursts to colossal detonations, all while maintaining intricate details.

    Brightness:
    Fine-tune the luminosity of your explosion's core. Enhance the realism by dynamically controlling the intensity of the brightest regions.

    Contrast:
    Define the variation between the darkest and brightest areas of your explosion, influencing the visual impact and highlighting the intricate structures.

    Anisotropy:
    Control how far small bulges and clouds extend from the explosion's shape. Achieve a balance between intricate complexity and overall shape.

    Vortex:
    Add an extra layer of dynamic appearance to your explosion by modulating the influence of heat distribution. Create swirling patterns and intrinsic motionl with this parameter.

    Smoke Density:
    Tailor the density of the smoke within your explosion. Adjust the thickness and opacity of the smoke plumes, from ethereal wisps to dense billows.

    Dust Density:
    Customize the density of dust particles within your explosion. Achieve a varied range of visual effects, from subtle hazes to thick, gritty atmospheres.

    Dust Color:
    Selecting the color of the dust particles within your explosion. 

    Drag:
    Employ a vector to simulate external forces like gravity or wind, influencing the behavior of your explosion. Introduce realistic dynamics and movement to your visual narrative.

    About the Creator: 

    I am a 3D artist in the advertising & television industry for 25 years.
    While working on projects and teaching animation at design college since 1998, i studied physics at the university of Vienna. That equipped me with a solid toolset of math to use in 3D workflows.

    I started programming Blender add-ons and noding vector operations into shaders around 2012.

    I love how Blender and Cycles offer a lot of opportunities to speed up rendering and fake depth into surfaces in many ways.
