HOW IT'S MADE

Anime Sweat Drop Emote is a compact effect made from 5 particle emitters. Techniques worth a look: sub-emitters set off by other particles, keyframed parameters and post filters (outline).

It loops seamlessly every 1.6 s, and 3 of its layers fire in bursts, so it pulses instead of flowing evenly. Start times are staggered from 0.04 s to 0.16 s, so the layers arrive one after another. To change its colour, select "Sweat Drop" in the studio and edit the Colour over Life gradient. Size on the same layer sets how big its particles are. The colour swatches by the downloads recolour every layer at once.

Layers, in draw order

  2. Sweat DropparticlesA single particle at 0.04 s. It swells and then shrinks away. Colour runs from white to blue over each life.
  3. Sweat Drop BodyparticlesDroplets set off by "Sweat Drop". They swell and then shrink away. Colour runs from white to blue over each life.
