    Very nice, only thing I could think of adding would be a bit more ships edited in. Great editing nevertheless



    Also wasn't Operation Sealion the scrapped invasion of England?

    Indeed it was. Abandoned after they couldn't destroy the RAF. Obviously this is some sort of alternate history... as demonstrated by the flying battleships. :P

    Sweetness. Really nice job building the steam ships, and I like the attention to detail.

    My only major complaints are that it feels a bit empty (could use with some more ships, birds, clouds that they're flying through) And some of the shading looks a bit iffy (primarily under the three soldiers in the foreground) Otherwise, sweet job.

    The only thing annoying me is the models, it feels like they don't belong.

    Edited:

    The soldiers.

    I think the smoke coming from the vents should be thicker, the clouds look great, the soldiers could use some direct casting shadows.

    I don't like the Sea Barge at the very bottom.

    But that's quite a Godly Contraption.

    I agree, I went to the bathroom twice today and none of my shits looked this good.

    On a serious note; Nice pic, I love the shading on the middle ship :)

    Nice picture, but you should have asked edberg or karbine to help you decorate a bit.

    What do you mean? Well, I saw that piece of artwork someone posted above a long time ago, and then the other day I remember an old pose of Kari's that was giant flying TF2 Blu-team armada so I decided to make this. I don't know where that artwork came from originally.

    gm_flatgrass_2008, it has a nice skybox and HDR that gm_flatgrass doesn't have so I use it for scenebuilding.

    Yes I noticed. I must do something on that map. Perhaps one should turn to pieces of art for inspiration. Scene build next.

    I would have if it didn't take me so many hours to make what I had already.

    I can't recall where I got them from. Check the DoDS section on FPSB perhaps.

    I'm not welding the whole ship together, unfreezing all of the props and duplicating it, only for the duplication to fuck up. Far more trouble than it's worth.

    Hmm map looks like this.

    That's not the same map - mine doesn't have a weird bunker thing in the middle.
