I really like it. Both the lighting and environment are killer. What did you do for the background? is it post production or done in blender?
it’s ZAP-O-Riffic.
very cool, how did you do the background, is it a photo, or your work, very nice
M@dcow, I’ve always looked up to your works as examples of excellence, and this work is no different. Awesome render, very exciting. I cannot wait to see this

Marty_D, SpindleRift and Wu: The background is done in blender using various cloud images and the new mapping options – Light, dark, screen ect…

Holy shit, I didn’t realise people were sending me PM’s! :o usually I get an email telling me that a new PM has arrived, but since it isn’t working now I assume I unticked a box or something in my Profile 
Anyway, wow, thanks for the kind words, it’s always nice to hear that people appreciate what I do, cheers bud
Also, S68 and Paradox: I’ll get in touch with you as soon as possible, I didn’t realise people were PMing me
