===== The "smoke trail" of the missile could have been better if done with halos. ===== You should've used the halos for the smoke(?) coming out from the missile, and the terrain looks flat. Reducing the number of colors might help. -hl ===== Fine details of the aircraft? I see lots of reflection (and it looks real cool on the ground, that part I like) but as for details you could have used some texture maps to paste on the really small details that make all of the difference in a model. Think about some texturing next time, it'll make a big difference. ===== yeah yeah. try again. you might get there. ===== Nice Work, but you might want to investigate 'halo's for those smoke balls Just look up 'halo' in the help and it'll give you all the instructions :) ===== Funny reflections on wing of plane on right. ===== Wonderful landscape, and brilliant considering only CSG POVRay shapes were used; where;s the sun on the horizon, though? ===== Everything is far too shiny, especially the landscape.... ===== The smoke could have looked less like glass balls and more like smoke, but overall I loved the look of the aircraft. Maybe a better smoke trail would have been a foggy long cylinder, not the "ball smoke" commonly seen as the smoke trail of missiles in some flight simulators. There appears to be the shadow/refracted light from another glass-ball smoke trail above and out of the frame that falls on the wing of the plane on the right--it's a little distracting to the image of the plane. ===== Plane model is kinda nifty. A little heavy-handed with the marble texture. Not too much fighting going on.....opposition planes? ===== The planes and missile are rather unrealistic. Try adding a little more to the models and sprucing up the textures you use. ===== Interesting idea with the missiles' trail. How about scaling it along its' path? ===== The aircraft are nice but the smoke trail needs some work. Perhaps a halo in a cylinder would have worked better. ===== The aircraft models are really very nice. I don't think the missile has worked so well, however, and the landscape is a bit odd. The lighting is interesting, but somehow not quite right. It's not a bad picture, but I don't think the setting does the aircraft justice. ===== I'm getting really sick of these. ===== I like the planes, but the real drawback is the smoke, it's just too cartoonish ===== What a strange missile trail. What are those strange circle patterns on the front jet's wing? ===== I would have giving this better reviews it the jet texturing was a bit more realistic. ===== I don't think your halo fire came out just right. They look like glass bubbles. On the other hand, maybe that's what you wanted. I don't get it. Nice modelling though! ===== I can see a geometrish non-winning scene. ===== I don't really like the smoke. It's too shiny. ===== you got so many help from somebody no ? i'ts nice but a half from your project is FAVORITISM !!!!!!!!!!. ===== While I was playing around with a submission that never got submitted, based on a similar scene to this, I used a long cylinder with halo for the smoke trail of a missile - you may want to have a play with that as well, to see if you can get something from it. Just a thought... :-) ===== Interesting smoke trail for the missile. ===== I'd give a higher technical merit score if there was any evidence that the airplanes were created by hand. As far as I can gather, they may have been part of a 3d clipart library. ===== Try using Halos for the missle's vapor trail and work on the texture used for the ground. ===== Maybe if you tried using a bunch of blobs with halos for the smoke, it might look better, in my opinion. ===== Missile with a barbers pole up it's ass....Hmmm Nice plane models, nice composition ===== Great concept wonderful interpretation of what flight has become ===== yawn ===== There seems to be something wrong with the image? ===== Do SOMETHING with that missle contrail! ===== great planes but the ground texture and the rocket smoke really detracted from the rest of the image's realism. also, planes are not really very original ===== Nice idea, roughedged execution. ===== Planes are fairly nice. The terrain and that silly trail of marbles behind the missile spoil the scene otherwise. If you did the modelling on the planes, very good job!
