I've really learnt a lot of new skills just from this single video. And I really appreciate how you throw in the little extras like the Color Management

Those explosions look good for CG, I’ve never seen them on the website before, probs cause it’s not free. Also I think those explosions should be bigger, the look and motion suggests it should be bigger

[bigboyanimation]

you forget something you must make the ground burning after the first explosion because when it ends its like nothing happened on the ground

[alltimeedit]

I am a new after effect, bro, give me 10 effects work and tell me what is the work, please, please, please.❤

[artequintanilha]

The explosions are ridiculous. They disappear very quickly
