Rip This...

My entry for JNC's judge's choice competition.

I know it's very similar to a shot posted in this thread - the reason is that I took them both at the same time. Please ignore this and just tell me what you think of the shot without any external influence, such as there being a very similar shot in another thread... ;D

nice shot!!

so to rip it I would say you need some antialiasing, you should switch off the afterburner it doesn't make it realistic, and I think more landscape and less sky would have been better, to give a feeling of altitude where the action took place....

apart from that the action is really interesting and the clouds are nice!

An interesting shot to be sure although you have jaggies on the winglet and the top of the engine :o

composition: A+
coloring/livery: A+
scenery: A+
clouds /sky realism: A+
jaggies: OUCH!

I would have moved the camera back a little so the shot would look like it was taken from another fighter in the escort. Would have make the pic more realistic in its balance and believability.
Otherwise very interestng, thoughtful pic. Nicely done... :)

I like the angle but this is let down by the jaggies and the blurred ground......I think it may look better if the typhoon wasn't there....as it has the most obvious jaggies....

Cheers guys!

Though I'm afraid at the mo there's nowt i can do 'bout the jaggies. My system doesn't support anti-aliasing. :'(

I have plans for a new computer though, so watch this space. ;D

The only problems are

Blurred Ground textures

Jaggies

Typhoon Centered too much (What was this 2004 or X? )
