Here's a WIP of my first SFX :
View attachment 345429
It's intended to be an attachment buff for abilities like Inner Fire or Unholy Frenzy. Works well at the moment using the head attachment on a lot of units. However units like Bloodmage with weird head attachment point won't look great with it, unfortunately.
I don't think I'll change the mask at this point, the black generic glow needs to be bigger/more visible IG, and the wings need a lot of work. I didn't even UV-unwrapped them. I'll make them way smaller, better animations (the GIF displays the Stand animation, I'll probably add some variants to the Stand animation, the Birth animation needs more polish and the Death animation isn't made yet), and a scrolling texture (probably additive red-ish thing) to represent the patagium.
With the custom black generic glow texture the final size will probably be around 75kb.
I haven't started to work on my second SFX, but I was wondering if I could make a SFX like Volcano (an object that can be used as an SFX, but doesn't scream "I'm just a SFX"). Technically Volcano is a doodad, that's why I'm asking.
