hair vortex
For this animation I used a hair particle system and a vortex force field

cube particles
I made a short animation using cubic particles and some force fields (again :-) )

stoneboids
I played with the particle info node and used the velocity direction and magnitude to create the color of the boid particles for this animation

metabubbles in red
I made a new version of my metabubbles animation this time in red/orange/yellow - becaus helloween
metabubbles
For this animation I used a particle system that uses a metaball as particle object. The metaball system has a material with an SSS shader. The only light source is placed above the particle emitter

black particles
I made a new simple animation using the blender particle system. I animated the particle emitter along a bezier curve, added a no physics particle set and also clicked the show dead particles to prevent them from dissapearing. For the light setup I used a sky node for the "world" and a plane with an emission material on the upper right.

fiber grow
for this animation I played with the fiber-mesh addon. The leafs are generated using a particle system.

small particles experiment
Tonight I played a bit with the blender particles engine and created some nice effects using very small particles, since they are quite short I combined two of them in one video this time using the video sequence editor
you can download the blend file for the fire effect
or you can download the blend file for the explosion effect the explosion effect
but be warned they are both quite big this time!
