Duration: 7 s
Channel: Kyriakos Kaitezidis
Description: Personal FX study based on the bombardment sequences in Dune. A procedural rocket-trail system detonates each missile the moment it hits the heightfield terrain, so the Axiom pyro in Solaris runs with no hand-keyed triggers. Rendered on GPU with Karma XPU. Solo build, 3–5 days.

The terrain pulls the trigger.
