Shockwave effect as seen in Transformers - how ?

[motorsep]

How would I go about making such shockwave effect:

Thanks beforehand

I wonder if it’s not possible to make such effect in Blender :spin:

There are a few ways to do this, and which you choose depends on your purpose. A relatively computation-intense solution is particles with force and turbulence fields, or even fluids or smoke. Or if you need something lighter, composite in an expanding sphere with an animated image texture + alpha.

What do you want to use the shockwave for?

I want to render static image (like a wallpaper) where shockwave is shot from a vehicle and it throws some creeps around it.
