@adrian2301 Your cirrus clouds are a perfect implementation of the idea! I tweaked the shader elements a bit and am VERY happy with the sky. Fantastic work sir.
Do you want to add a card-based cloud for me to place in the sky? More variety is always nice. Otherwise you’re welcome to focus on the chimney smoke the rest of the time.
Some sort of animation on the smoke seems necessary…it’d be really odd to see it static. It would also probably be best as a 3D asset, able to orbit around and cast a shadow on the roof. Since the art shows the smoke bent to the side considerably, accomplishing all these things could be very tricky. Thanks to the clouds we know the ghibli method is too slow if the camera gets close/inside and volumetrics aren’t a good option due to the flickering…
Perhaps this method could work for us? https://www.artstation.com/artwork/mDW6Yd
Where the puffs are card-based particles that follow a curve’s path to match the art?
