Hi guys, i'm going to create my RHG demo but I'm in trouble... a don't know how to animate tornados.
That's a real problem because this is my character's signature move.
Please can someone give me some advices? :(

Try doing one, give it your best shot and post it here. You could work from there.

It's probably a bad idea to make you guy's gimmick something that you cannot animate.

That wouldn't be a bad style for this guy to pick up, but the whole blurring brush strokes for like 2-3 frames looks lame :( I'd just draw it lol.

I'm sorry for being anbsent but I had (and still have) many commitments. I'm trying to make two styles of tornado, show them to you and then decide which is the best. I think to draw them with a spiky style instead of blur effects

Well you can copy this guys style where it's just random scribbles in a funnel shape and then blur them, or you can actually draw and shade the tornado for several frames in a movie clip. I'd go with the second one and add some other neat effects to make it look cooler and not flat.

That guy seems really dedicated to his work :0
I think those wind effects weren't really that bad, this dude could try mimicking them and make necessary changes to his liking.
