for the tail you should use:
Limiter
Reverb
Clip Distortion
Volume Envelope
Overdrive
EQ
Phaser (After distortion)
Waveshaper
Timestretcher (nobody really uses that but it can work)

and at the very end you can optionally use a multiband compressor/distortion and stereo phasing/phase inversion

that's what works best in my opinion
Noted... thank you!
Please anyone feel free to gimme some feedback on my track (it's in the mixing phase still... so u know)

I actually had an idea similar in using a loin roar and a thunder sound effect, but i tried to make a Hardstyle kick tail with a lions roar synthetically made which didn't pitch right,but sounded cool.Also tried making a thunder sound effect kick and didn't work out well. I also like the melody it's very creative and not repetitive.
