Add colour to particles

I managed to make a cube emit particles along a curve.

particles colour

Is it possible to

  1. Add colour to these particles ?

  2. Can I add more than one colour so that it is visually attractive ?

Any help will be great.

Hello,

can’t say for halo rendering, but if you change render to Object you can use this setup (found somewhere on BA).

Particle system | Render | Render As : Object
Object is the big green cone on the right.

Into the color ramp node you can change interpolation to constant to have only the colors you setup (pure blue, red etc)
Sometimes resulting particle objects aren’t evenly distributed along the color ramp, if you don’t see any variations, try to move them all the way.

Using Render As Object gives you an options to vary the size of particles with some randomness if you want.

There is also a ParticleInfo node but can’t say much about it.

Have fun with particles :sparkler:
