Your workflow for creating flames for a render?
polycounter lvl 4
So I'm using Maya, Zbrush, substance painter and Marmoset in my workflow. I am trying to create flames for this concept art in 3D space. I pretty much just want the background and space in between these characters to be fire with a bit of transparency, emissive, and multiple layers.
My initial game plan is to use the alpha blending shader in substance painter on some planes in a flame shape of varying sizes and putting them all over. Then throwing emissive and color channels for some glow and whatnot. Should I just create a lot of these and mess with the opacity channel and hope for the best? Or does anyone have an easier tip or workaround for making this as realistic as possible?

Or as a game-ready real-time scene? Make a couple flipbooks of looping fire, and spam cards around.
