Well in your defense, depending on what altitude your flying (and given the typical altitudes you fly at), a little panic might be in order, especially when your looking at an empty oxygen gauge! LOL

Looks awesome

although if the aircraft had only been hit a few seconds ago, like someone pointed out, then maybe edit-1 is the best Still when the shot is edited like you have done it makes a lot of difference

Happy birthday, Oleg! Its shaping up very nicely....very well done!
About the fps: it most likely will be very similar to ROF, wich is fine for me.

Drafting,

Bravo for the job, but your edits look cartoonish and unrealistic, especially the first one. I suggest to take a look at guncams such as the famous one here

you'll see explosions and smoke like this one, quite different from yours (and Olegs ...):



Cheers,
Insuber

Maybe they'd look a little better if there was a transition to the full smoke effect from something like a puffy explosion or a gradual opacity increase?

I've added the original shot at the top along with two photoshopped effects to show what I mean:



...again, sorry to nit-pick and all that. Maybe though, since BoB is still in production, this might be a useful post?

+1
it should look realistic not in 'Hollywood Style'

[FS~Hawks]

Um it's W.I.P. still so there is still fine tuning to do so please don't expect the pic's in this thread to be finished product.
