KAMURO: This effect has not been defined in any of the printed literature I know of the metallic willow effect can be seen towards the end of the video segment, just before the lacework truck scene. (Final movie)

The effect looks like a smolder mixture with some type of flake aluminum, titanium or ferrotitanium ???

KAMURO is same that BROCADE ? Terrible doubt :confused:

Could the aluminum possibly be a higher density coarse stamped flake?
Or possibly some Ti alloy?

The response to softly- hanging effect (look the movie; as threads; as rain Yeh; Ohhh beautiful) is the table pág. 176 Hardt's book "Pyrotechnics" ?
I have this book and I doubt too...

In affirmative case... What number of the Hardt's table (1-2-3-4-5-6) supposedly belongs this metallic effect ???? :eek:

Any information and possible composition is most appreciated.
Promise ! :confused:

Don't quote whole posts.

If I understand you correctly the effect you are talking about is sometimes called a "Tiger Tail".

If that is it then the common forumla that I have seen can be found here http://www.vk2zay.net/composition.php?id=55

No Tiger Tail wouldn't be what he is looking for. A kamuro is a metallic streamer. It seams to be a very sought after secret. With as many theories as twinkles.

I am not sure if it is a pill box star or a shell filled with very large stars. I want to say it is FeTi from the video, but can not be sure.

Dead thread, but that looks like a FeTi to me.

Like a souped up Willow composition.
