In Topic: how did this effect?

31 January 2011 - 02:10 PM

hello everybody!! :)




I would like to ask again about effects.. I saw one realy nice video, and I want to ask, does somebody know how to do this effect (or name), which is in that video:



effect is on 0:59 to 1:01 min.. It like tiger tail with FeTi ? or other streamer with metals and fuels, MgAl with antimony trisulphide .. who can give so bright,deep yellow metalic color..

what do you think about this effect?




Thank's a lot!!!




And here is one my 3'' shell for you ;)

There are lots of red strobe compositions which use Strontium Nitrate, lots of formulas come up if you do a search here. Here's a random one.

Strontium Nitrate 68.87%
Magnalium, granular, -100 mesh 22.50%
Parlon 3.44%
Dextrin 1.72%
Gum Arabic 1.72%
Copper(II) Oxide, black 0.87%
Copper(II) Oxychloride 0.87%
Bind with 10% NC lacquer

They don't tend to quite as good as AP-based strobes but you can certainly make something useable.





thanks, I don't have Copper(II) Oxychloride :( and Gum Arabic, but I can change it to Red Gum.. Do you know what Copper(II) Oxychloride doing in this formula ?

I have tryed to find some compositions here, but I can't..

I have dismantled one cake with this effect.. I have cut the star these..there are`nt one star with a lot little crackling microstars, there was one round star about 3mm.. 

I think this star was made of Bismuth trioxide (becouse color was like white, like grey) , but that component give this effect? I had try to add in my dragon eggs formula +5% aliuminium atimized 300-400mesh, but effect is not that, whitch I try to find. 

I used this composition:

Pb3O4.............................................81.8
Mgal (50/50, 200 Mesh)...................9.1
CuO..................................................9.1
Nc.....................................................10% 

+Aliuminium atomized - 5%. 

I think ,,Time rain'' effect is Pop Glitter stars.
