Great post!!! It remainds me of Okami. I bet they used this kind of technique somewhere.

Okami's wind spiral effects are, believe it or not, mostly static geometry, with some cleverly placed vertex colors and masks to handle the fade-outs. You can see a mini-breakdown of the effect here.

Scrolling textures can do a lot!
