Its a subject raised by poster aleccap in the previous "making smoke" thread below -
Interesting subject!
Ref: commercially available products...
The Model Railway world has smoke generators intended for fitment to (lectrically powered ) model steam locomotives, Seuth and Vollmer are two manufacturer that spring to mind.
Alas...whilst these units do make (white) smoke--it is akin to Cigarette smoke in texture, not 1:87 scale!!, leave alone 1/350 or 1/700...
ie ===>> the smoke is just too....
BIG !! and as such looks - in my view- even for the larger scales used in railway modelling ... completely unrealistic!!- although I am happy to be proven wrong!
I have been unable to locate an off the shelf product to simulate static model smoke effectively as yet... quite a few refs to military modelling smoke methods on the internet ...
here is one that gave a fair effect
http://santacruzwarhammer.blogspot.com/ ... chive.htmlmaybe a trawl of Youtube might yield a useful method ?
Good luck
