As you wish ! Let the fireworks begin:

(2min video showing AI-controlled flak turrets on warships, lots of enhancements to be done, but a teaser of the fire curtain to be faced in the infamous Bomb Alley!)


Meanwhile, Ariel is doing a 2008 calendar render, with the new hires A-4Q model (cortesy of Cesar Turturro):



And I'm working on adding detail to HMS Ardent, the forgotten frigate of the Falklands war, still needing much detail in the superestructure and stuff, but here is it:



Merry Christmas to all and have a great new year!

Thank you Dante!!! That was impressive!

The sky and water look great! Loved the sense of speed, and the action!

Thanks again for taking the time to post that!
