If you were planning to add rain, it's basically way too late since you'll be off the RC pretty soon. Or maybe you were joking. But adding rain would have really been a good thing.

I didn't know that Cuh Mandan Conkaa had nice music like this.

Yeah check the soundtrack out on Youtube there's some really good tracks. To Iritscen - I don't have the skills to add rain but I'd love to know the best way to do it, even lightning in the background. I'm not terribly happy with the framerate for this one, but the music carries it.

I would have to try it myself to know for sure. Probably I'd try to animate it by hand by drawing gradient streaks, or else try to isolate rain footage from a cartoon using Final Cut and give it like 50% opacity. Neither would be very easy, of course. But that didn't stop me from saying *you* should do it :-)

Lightning's easier, Google an image and break each branch of the lightning into its own layer, then progressively add the lower branches in successive frames. A simple gradient laid out behind the masked buildings could resemble the sky being briefly lit by the lightning. The extra touch would be momentary light shading along the building edges on the sides where the lightning flashes -- if you really meant business.

That's assuming you have a few hours to sink into a YTMND. Or you could just go out on the town and have a more rewarding experience than working your butt off and hoping people appreciate your efforts, while fearing the inevitable downvotes.
