Hey guys, Idk if I should ask this or not but i figure some of you amazing editors know how.

I was wondering how to make realistic looking flames, because I want to make it look like a house is on fire.

There also are probably brushes you can look up on devinart if that's the style flames you want.

I actually want to know how to make realistic cigarette smoke.
