Legofin2012 Posted August 9, 2013 Hi, just wondering if anyone has any ideas about building explosions, been trying to build on for awhile but failed, mostly ship explosions? (Posting this here because it's for a Star Wars MOC) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sebeus I Posted August 9, 2013 Use fire and transparant parts, I made this chrashing fighter a while ago; I have a few more if you're interested... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nom Carver Posted August 9, 2013 There is also some sort of red bush that I have seen many times on vignettes, you can also use cotton to make smoke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legofin2012 Posted August 9, 2013 Thanks, I have tryed with flames, but didn't have enough, and don't have a red plant, but thanks for the quick replies! One that I quite like is the one used here: http://mocpages.com/moc.php/317737. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gremer Posted August 9, 2013 You could use transparent orange and red plates, if you have some. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted August 9, 2013 Don't forget the little spots of white; that really helps the effect. (both as bright white light and as steam/smoke in the explosion.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legofin2012 Posted August 9, 2013 Thanks for the tips, I really want to get the rounded shape of an explosion, just don't know how. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
