Particle Generator Explosion!

The particle generator was layered and used to create the following explosion and fire. I repeated the playback of the explosion a couple of times so that it could be viewed better. When I let the explosion run longer it did not look as good. There are 4 layers on the explosion. There is one layer that is sparks heading out with a faster velocity and less resistance. There are 2 layers that have slower faded spheres with two different colors to help add to the body of the explosion. The final layer is a layer of smoke that has the highest level of  resistance and the no gravity on it so that it will stay where smoke should stay. I made the fire by layering two different faded spheres on top of each other with one adding and the other remaining a composite. The rear flame is faster and with less gravity. The front one is slower with more gravity to stay in the range of the hotter flames. Enjoy.
