FumeFX Thanos Portal for 3ds Max

The Avengers tutorials are so popular and fun. This tutorial for the Thanos Portal comes from SitniSati, and is, of course, inspired by the Avengers Infinity War. This portal appears when Thanos arrives in Wakanda and displays dark tendrils with small lightings that illuminate it. They demonstrate how to use the FumeFX Effectors to control the smoke tendrils around the torus. Instead of the bluish glow in the film, they used a fiery look and simulation that has benefitted from more detail. Finally, they use Arnold Render.
