WelshZeCorgi Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) Anyone know how to make effects like cannon fire, bullet impacts and other effects like the sparks in the attached photo? Edited October 2, 2018 by WelshZeCorgi Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen this kind of arrangement on some HO scale model railroad where a blinking led with quite a realistic blinking pattern was simulating welding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was more looking for using the "sparks" in the photo to simulate rifle/tank caliber rounds hitting armor. I was also hoping to simulate the moment a weapon is discharged, including the casings ejected from infantry weapons. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be curious to see other shots of that build because I would have said it was done with thin fiber optics and a well placed LED but maybe not. If it is PS I'm disappointed too.
