looks ausome. great render.

thanks guys.

here’s a small update. I’m still trying to find a way to make the bullet holes more noticable…

does anyone know how to bake fluid sim and/or dupliframe models into an actual mesh?

edit: bigger/sharper render added

Very nice work.
I especially like the materials, except for maybe the “tin foil” like material on the top and bottom of the “canister”.

To convert a frame of the fluid simulation to a mesh you can use a script from the wiki fluid simulation page (Limitations & Workarounds) section.

For the Dupliframe conversion, I believe the hot key is Ctrl+Shift+[a].
