Man, really nice stuff.. i like this blade a lot. Does the fire follow dynamics at all, like if you wanted to show it slashing would the flames stick right to the sword, or kinda fade out into the air in the way its being sliced? Render out a slash in progress and that would be sweet . Anyways, yea.. thats great that you combined VIP tuts to make a really great render. Thanks for sharing it with us , you have inspired me to watch those.. lol.
