    Reminds me of the beginning of HL:OpFor :P

    Freaking awesome angle and shading there, DoF and posing are quite nice too.
    Dunno why but i feel like the smoke coming out of the shooting gunship is a little too thick.

    Double shit. Wystan... not shit posting me? Something is wrong today... :P

    Thanks, mate. I didn't motion-blur the ships in the background because I figured they are far enough away from the camera to be in focus (apart from the depth-of-field).

    -----------------

    Again, thanks for all the comments so far!

    Really nice job Chesty, the lighting, smoke, muzzleflashes, and posing all look excellent. My only issue is that the tops of the trees that the spider thing is poking out of, seem rather flat. Though I understand that adding good looking shading to them would be a bitch, it's just one of those little nitpicks that you can't really help.

    Still, great job man.

    He looks a little bit too calm to be hanging onto that jet while evading those flying things and the machine gun firing at the spider. Still I like it.:awesomelon:

    Partly. I haven't actually seen the film, just a trailer or two, but I wanted to use the LP models too.

    NOES, another WRONG use of the PAC air vehicles from battlefield 2142, those things are driven by ASAINS, not space marines...

    Anyway... I other than that, which annoys me, quite good

    Maybe you're a BF2142 fanboy or something (wait... what am I saying, maybe?) but you have to consider that people are limited on models and will use what they can get and employ their artistic license.

    The only thing I would ask is how you did the glass on the cockpits, that seems to be the only reason I don't use those models.

    Anyhow, I like it, especially compared to the original.

    (What's with the influx of sci-fi pictures lately?)

    I isolated the shapes of the glass panels in turn and then just painted a semi-transparent white on with a big, soft brush as the light would hit it.

    (What's with the influx of sci-fi pictures lately?)
    Dunno. I've been doing Sci-Fi pics for quite a while now, but I guess it just depends on what models are released.
