Hi.
I am a Spanish Pyro.
I would like to make this effect. (look photo)

Anybody knows a composition to make this effect?

Note: this effect is different of WILLOW, TIGER TAIL or KAMURO.
Here, in Spain, the name of this effect, is: "LENTEJUELA DORADA".

thanks

well to be honest you have just confused me a great deal, startin a new thread/signing up just to post that!

Anyway that looks abit like a stinger. with maybe some aluminium or iron filings.

I made some stars not so long ago that had a similar tail effect to that. The composition was either:

55 - Potassium Nitrate
17 - Sulfur
11 - Charcoal Airfloat
7 - Sodium Bicarbonate
5 - Aluminum, atom, spher
5 - Dextrin

or

Potassium Nitrate - 64
Sulfur - 8.5
Charcoal (I used pine) - 12
-325 mesh spherical Aluminium - 10
Dextrin - 5

Those comps came from the APC forum.

Actually if that is a frame from the video that I believe it is from then they are girandolas. Probably a FeTi driver composition, like Kyle's 1/2" driver:

64 Potassium Nitrate
27 Charcoal (airfloat)
9 Sulfur
6 FeTi (60:40 alloy, -40+325 mesh)

Roughly translated into english I belive "LENTEJUELA DORADA" is "golden sequin" which suggests some kind of gold glitter. D1 Glitter will do the job if they are just comets. A transformation effect with a Sodium delay agent might be worth trying too.

Like Alan said for a girandola video

Eight Girandola's going off at once? Dam that would look cool!

Yes, Creepin pyro those are the glitter girandolas from a FPM video, believe from 04'. I too am interested in the video from the screen grab Castillareno linked to.
