amazing
even image quality isnt that good

Thanks:) It seems like it lost some quality when I uploaded it. I think I put out a better picture in the post:3

Beautiful. Just reading about the Battle of Britain in ‘All Hell Let Loose’. Good book and great image image with lots of rivets!

Thanks fobsta:)

Looking really nice… since you’ve rigged it, are you going to be animating it in someway?

Thanks:) I haven’t really thought about animating it, and I’ve already started on a new project… So I’m not going to animate it in the nearest future, I might consider animating it later at some point:) But not now:3

I like this one very much! The only thing that seems a little off is that the planes don’t quite blend in with the background. They sorta ‘pop out’ If that makes sense.

Thanks:3 It make sense, I find it quite hard to add a 3D object to a real photo… Any idea to make it better?

Really good work Heninzelnisse! I do agree with the post by Onyxidol though. Maybe if you did a bit of color grading to one of the images, I find that it normally helps. I just use a color balance node and change the tint of one of the images until it blends in better with the other one (does that make since?)

If that doesn’t work, then I’m not sure how to make it better. Other then that little thing, the image looks great!

i love it! except theirs no pilot… lol

Don’t be silly… Spitfires are perfectly capable of flying themselves… :wink:

I especially like the lighting and the focus of this piece. Its almost a loop. You see the closest spitfire first, then look up to see the other one, then look up again to see the light. And as you look at how the light affects the scene, you see the closest spitfire again.

Very nice job :slight_smile:

Thanks:) I’ll try it out:p

ThorntonStrolia Thanks:) I should perhaps add a pilot XD

See my previous comment…

I think it looks off because the clouds are receiving a very strong glowy and blown out light, but the planes are not. I’m not the best at judging though so idk. The closeup images look amazing though.

Thanks Tsun :slight_smile:

Looks great, congratulations!

Thanks leonnn :3

Great details. I love how you got all the rivets in the close ups.

Would like to see the details featured somehow, maybe is a different setting.
