Happy Not 4th Of July, Americans!
A combination of the 4th, constant playing of Mercenaries 2, and watching Transformers 2, were the inspiration of this pic. I mostly wanted to make something big go boom :fuckyou:
(FYI, the explosion was cause by one of the large oil tanks exploding from a tank shell, in case it is hard to tell -.-)

(FYI, my player is hidden in this pic, try and find me!)
EDIT- (Crap I just realized I forgot to add motion blur to some of the shrapnel chunks :saddowns:)
BTW, scene build.
Good job, this picture looks amazing. The only thing that looked wrong, is that I'd think the jet would have some sort of trail.
I think I give up on that Military Madness Thing, also, are you the one driving the chopper?
I envy your skills, Vman.
By the way, how did you make the explosion?

It is a harrier, it is hovering (I was going to have it firing down on the troops but I couldn't get it to look right)

Aww, I was hoping not to discourage people :saddowns:
And no, Im not driving the chopper.

Only weird thing is, that the trains haven't even moved one bit.

Gas and oil explosion are different than high explosives. Gas explosions create a lot more fire and are usually a lot bigger, but they lack the shockwave of high explosives. That's why they always use gas and pyrotechnics in movies so the explosions won't hurt the actors.

:lol:
The title also reminded me of Die Hard when John blows out the third floor and Dick went;
"... my God ... TELL ME YOU GOT THAT!!"

"Huh, whats that?"

This looks great! Exactly what I imagined when I first saw it, but I was thikning the explosion would be on the farthest oil... holder?

I lol'd, In other News, this picture is great! I'm still Jealous of your Skills though :D

What's with everyone thinking jets have trails? I live directly across from a navy base, and the bastards fly over my house all the time. Not once, not even once, have I seen a jet with any sort of trail. The atmospheric conditions have to perfect, and the jet has to be flying very slow. Usually, when blowing shit up, jets tend to try to flee the area before they get shot down.
Aww, C'mon SilverHammer, the title was plenty descriptive :frown:
Could you at least change it to something like "Holy Shit they just hit the damn fuel tank!"
Hm... I like the composition of the scene and everything but this is far from perfect, unlike some of your previous work.
The explosion doesn't look like it's going at the same angle at the picture (the camera is angled down but the photograph explosion was clearly taken from ground level) and editing in some shadows for all of the buildings would have helped the picture massively.
Sonofabitch you stole my idea :(
Now to rethink another helicopter angle.

Yea, I hoped no one would rat me out on the explosion angle, I tried my best (its friggin hard to find good explosion pictures like that)
And I [I]would[/I] have put shadows on the buildings, but the isolation would have been a bitch.

You had the same idea? What was it going to look like?
This is so badass Vman...
Like, say that with a holy shit type of tone..
And that's how I said it..
Ka-boom!!
