VEF2 - Project 1 and 2

I've had a few issues this month- first with my original maya file for project 1 corrupting then with houdini and project 2 refusing to work properly for much of the week

However, I was able to bounce back and get my renders out and my fire flowing!

Project 1

Setting a Cello Aflame! 

And my project 2 - 

A slight take on Ghost Rider

All in all i enjoy Visual effects - but I'm not that keen on Houdini. (At least not right now!)
