Nice composition.

I would go for a softening / light blurring of the UAV layer image, to soften the sharpness of the UAV, as contrasted to the background ship.

Also, don't call the missle a Tomahawk, which is a cruise missle (Sea/Air to Ground) vs an air-to-air missle.. (for believability reasons)

Nice Comp once again Daz. Think the guy firing the missile needs to put on his specs though ;D

I've just got two questions...1. What is Global Hawk doing at that height, i thought it was a high altitude reconisance aircraft? 2. Why are the US firing upon a US operaterd aircraft. Lets just put it down to artistic lisense lol.

BTW dont take any crititism too seriously :), good job

Nice edit mate ;)
A little too much contrast between the UAV and the ship though 8)
Great edit otherwise ;)

hehehe that UAV is dead! (was it ever 'alive'? ;D)
Is that a shot of the ship actually firing the missle or did u also put the missile and the ship together?
And don't let these other guys get to you... It's just a nice pic of a UAV flying in front of a ship that's firing a missile at it! :P
Wich also proves the point that you shouldn't let a puter fly a plane! Real pilots rule!!! ;D
(also could explain the low altitude, Mistral. lol)

Don't worry about who's firing at who.  Just think that the floating thing is shooting at the flying thing!  Lovely shot you have there!
