How would I draw the particle for this?

I’ve recently begun looking online for inspiration on particles to create to help improve and nurture my skills in particles for roblox. My goal would be to make: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/12/38/c2/1238c260328381a9140e57b88040083a.gif

I’ve figured out how to do most everything in this except for the tornado/vortex part of this particle. I know that I probably won’t be able to get to replicate the particles and the motions however, before I need that I need a particle for that to go off of. I looked in the roblox library and found none, so I need some guidance on where I would even start to draw the particle for the vortex part. I have a painting software to draw the particles but I don’t know what sort of shape I would have to create to make that vortex-y feeling in studio with that particle. Thank you to all responses in advance!

I’m guessing that you would have to draw some type of vortex-shaped thing? Like a small tornado. Because in the picture you can see a lot of tornado-like shapes. Just a suggestion, I don’t really know if it’ll work!

Try Sofloann’s tutorial information, unfortunately the videos are not there, but the information is:

Only issue with that is that it would be super laggy and I can’t seem to make it solidify, right now it looks pixelated.

Maybe try some beams and make the attachments rotate kinda like this:

I can’t seem to find any good textures for beams, my normal textures for particles don’t work on beams as well. Doo you have any good ones you know?

You can probably utilize blender and create a mesh, then spin the mesh to give it the spinning effect and change the material as desired, an example of this would be:

Though honestly I actually have no clue how he creates them, you can probably try asking him though.

I think they’re just meshes with neon materials.
The second one at least 100% sure.

I used a blurred kind of dot for my portal, then you just have to adjust the parameters.

Would something like: https://gyazo.com/aaf01f00132b237d921ad2b327af6cc4 work too?

I would just advise using meshes and rotating them to achieve a similar effect (Animate or tween, etc):

How do you get the little circles to gravitate/hone/attract toward the spiral center?

https://gyazo.com/20e4312bcc8848b2f81034e3815d6c7b This is a more updated version of it and to accomplish this I took a circle particle put it inside an attachment(the parent of the attachment was a part). Then the circles will be concentric, so it’s just a matter of adjusting speed and size accordingly. Hope this helps.
