Description With a thunderous roar, the M82 sent its lead-clad love letter across the catwalk, greeting its victim with a terrible force.
The two girls were caught in an ambush in the worst of places: the space station's exterior catwalk, with nothing but reinforced glass shielding them from the void.
Each passing moment was a blessing as bullets sailed around them, though each miss was still an imminent tapping from the Reaper's scythe.

Had a sudden idea to make this the other day just on a whim; I don't really have much to say about it except that it was quite fun to do.
Character on the left is my female persona, Asha, and character on the right is a model hack done by ~bloocobalt .

Hugely inspired by KYMG's "butterfly M82A1"
Thanks to ~Niteshader for the glass crack brushes.

The one on the left is the female version of my personal model, and the one on the right was done by a friend, as I state in the description.
I have no intention of posting or sending links here.

Cloudy brushes with the desired color in highlight and shade, brush up a happy cloud and then use a hard-edged, uneven brush (I use the same cloudy brush as I use to paint it) at a high opacity to define it.

So, let me get this straight

you paint background smoke first at low opacity, then lower the size of the brush at a higher opacity and paint over some bits?

I generally brush the lighter parts of the smoke first, then go over it with the darker color to give it a more natural gradient, and then use the same process more frequently with a smaller brush to give it more detail.
Most of the time I keep the opacity at 20-30%.

ooh

So basically you make a base smoke and then refine it with smaller, stronger smoke with lighter and darker colors

Thankies

and i'm guessing you got the look with the warp tansform and the texture with a overlayed texture?

Nope, all from the cloudy brush, but your guess could work too.
