    Alright, I'm trying a particle motion effect to make it look like particles are coming off of the vehicle. I haven't found a tutorial so I've been trying different... techniques to make it look like they're flowing from the vehicle. Anyways, here it is, tell me what you think of this effect, if you want me to try something else, just tell me. Hopefully something will work.

    BTW, I removed a logo in the bottom right, can anyone tell?

    FINAL VERSION

    I'm hoping the shadows look correct and that there is enough blending with everything. Thanks for the help guys.

    Looks great except for one thing. The particles kinda look like they are moving to the side of the car instead of behind it. Its a perspective thing. And no, i can't tell you removed a logo. Good job.

    I've noticed that about the particles not looking like they come from behind the car... I'm not exactly sure how to change it to make it look as so. Maybe just editing the perspective of it could make it look as so.

    Shadows on the road might help.

    That's a good idea, I could try that, I did save a PSD of it. Keep giving me new ideas guys, I'll revamp it and repost.

    Like Hari said it kinda looks like they are flowing to the side. I would add just a few more "particles" onto the hood area of the car or the roof. Amazing job though

    Alright, V2 is up. Shadows underneath the particles and more particles behind the car.

    Bad shading, imo. Looks like one giant shadow from the retaining wall of the bridge, and not from the particles.

    It doesn't really look like it's dissolving because you can still see the very back of the car. Maybe try and blend the end into the flow of the particles so it looks a little more convincing.
