I am currently making a Roblox VFX fighting style game and I made my first VFX prototype in theme of a volcanic tornado. How can I make this look a lot better? Right now it looks a little empty and feels like it’s missing something; I just can’t put the pieces together.
You could add dust particles to really make it feel like the tornado is a force of nature that interacts with the environment. Depending on the material that the tornado’s spawned on too, you could switch out the particles (like snow, pebbles, dirt, etc.,)
Add highlights to the tornado. It looks very very dull. A way to improve it is to add white (neon). Also like @04robot48 said add more particles. Adding those could make it look more realistic.
Optional: maybe add flames and ashes. I don’t know what kind of tornado that is but it looks like a fire tornado. Adding flames could make it look more realistic with the ashes. Also if it’s going to be animated. I recommend making the path that the tornado left with burnt black trail showing it burned the ground. Hope that helps!
