There's a model simulation of what it looks like that I've seen on TV, but I haven't been able to find it online. If I find it in the future, I'll try to remember to post it here.
Here's a link to an
image which I hope is helpful. The scud would most likely be associated with the forward flank downdraft.
The wiki for "
supercell" has some interesting and hopefully helpful diagrams.
Not every tornado develops from a supercell, and not all supercells develop tornadoes, but the majority of information is about supercells.
