Holy Lightning Attack

This effect from concept to fully fleshed out was so much fun to do, every element created was exactly how I pictured it to be in my mind and it feels AMAZING when you can be so proud of your work. This lesson from VFXA was about creating a lightning flipbook to make a lightning attack and how to do it well.

The full Holy Lightning attack that leaves a debuff on the damaged orbs.

First ever made flipbook that was necessary for this effect, absolutely loved creating this, and seeing the animation play was very satisfying.

Some of my favorite textures that I made for this effect, in total I made around 15 textures including gradients and noises. Textures Top Left to Down Right: Lightning Sprites, Ground Impact, Lightning Blur & Torched Ground.

The Holy debuff effect I made to showcase damage done and a debuff being placed in an unlit environment. Mainly made by kitbashing things I already made for the main impact and was a lot of fun to put together.
