Fireball Spell - Path of Exile 2 Fanart

I have created a fanart VFX for Path of Exile 2. I wanted to take the multiple elements of fire spells from the game and create another spell that will fit in with the rest of the skillset.

Thank you Brandon Zhao for feed back and guidance.

Final result

I used 3 different levels of particles to create the illusion of a sphere. I referenced Tuatara studios bulge UV distortion demonstration on LinkedIn to create the inside body.

I've created several master materials that I used throughout this project through material instances

These are the feedback that I got from Brandon Zhao and how I addressed them to improve it. I also added another explosion to translate the idea better especially in motion.
