===== Good original idea. The oil spill isn't completely realistic, but is a damned fine effort. Engine looks a bit clean, but that's raytracing for you, we have to get those reflections in there somewhere ;-) ===== Good topic, I like RC Airplanes. Good detail and texturing on the engine, and nice effect witht the gasoline. ===== Cool concept. The oil slick is cool ,too!!! ===== Some reflection in the oil spill would give you an 16 out of 20 ===== This looks a lot more like 'lack of flight' than 'flight', but nevermind. Nice oil texture. I think bicubic patches would 've been better than height-fields for the sand ===== the "path" through the sand that the engine cut didn't look like it was supposed to, to me. The "dug out" part looked like little mountains instead. But I liked the engine image. ===== The reflections of the horizon on the engine are quite effective and a nice touch. The ground looks a bit lunar. ===== Nice job. Creative concept! ===== Nice image, well executed, but not exactly 'flight', is it? ===== Nice use of the iridescent feature. ===== Some things here work better than others. The Engine is far too clean for something that just plunged into the sand. no scratches, no soot. On the other hand the way it has dug into the sand is a nice detail and works well. The iridescence on the oil isn't quite realistic, but nice anyway. The rock is very well done, something many thought impossible in POV not so long ago. ===== Wish I could see the rest of the plane! Lovely engine. The oil slick needs work. ===== Thank God they didn't add the plane... the scene is just perfect like that. ===== The oil leak could have been darker(looks like ethyl alc :]). But otherwise one of the better images I've seen. ===== Maybe if you had made the oil a bit more permeable it would look a bit better. ===== Should have added the model plane to the image. Otherwise, this is a very long stretch of the theme, IMHO. ===== INTERESTING CONCEPT LACKS TECHNICAL DETAILS ===== nice image - good textures, realistic. suggestions: it's good but maybe not as interesting as it could be - just a broken model engine. dhoule@tng.net ===== Not really flight as much as the aftermath thereof... ===== Cute concept. Good modelling on the motor. The ground looks a bit out of proportion to the scale of the motor. And isn't oil only irridescent when it's floating on water? Loved the bent screw!
