I liked the idea of a sparkling smoke so I thought I'd have a got with making smoke in Maya.Here's a quick test that was tweaked in After Effects:

Something I'd really like to try next would be drawing something with particles. I'll need to have a look at some past tutorials but I love the idea of drawing a mouth or a shoe or something similar in sparkling particles.

In the meantime though, here are a few extra experiments with the sparkling particles, slightly tweaked, from yesterday:

I'm going to play around with making them weave around curves next. Onwards and upwards! :D
