Starting to get the hang of creating a concept where I have a certain vision in mind while still doing the lessons from VFX Apprentice, original lesson material is a fire explosion, but I wanted to go with a green/blue fire from an alchemy perspective and also had some inspiration from the Chaos Bolt from Warlocks in WoW. Extremely pleased how my version of the lesson turned out.
