The small fire structures look kinda fake interestingly. Nice.

^^ Yes, I agree. And I found it interesting as well. It is strange!
Had one of you guys made that in CG programs, I would of thought, hey thats really good, but not real looking. those flames look really like fractals up close.

Also, its cool that they showed their set up. Really want to do the same under studio conditions and get some great stock. Do it in front of an all black background to make some alphas or something.

I have had frank B's tornado pack since he started selling it. Had something like this in mind from the beginning.

That's the thought that came to me. With the slow motion you can see the "combustion fronts" where the gases are burning along curved surfaces.
