    You're a freaking genius. I've been wanting a purely Ae, no plug-in tutorial on cartoon explosions for years, thanks so much Ben 👍
    Could you use the roughen effect for easier "dissipation" of the smoke near the end?

    If you envision a certain look and then determine that you would probably need three days of grinding before reaching any kind of result, the real value of which will only become apparent after actually spending that much time, it is always worth considering spending said time viewing, no STUDYING Ben's videos instead, as it will certainly lead to something way better. What an amazing chanel. I deeply envy not only the artistic creativity at play, but even more the procedural ingenuity.
