clouds are 3d or is that a texture? Sun a texture too with some highlights or lighting effects?

Also, those corsairs are also your work?

kermit, i just used terragen to create the back ground and stuck two corsairs right out of AH on it

background is a 3D render from terragen and the hogs are from AH

Great pic, but my nit-picky $0.02- might wanna flip the pic horizontally, the "Big Hog" on the tail is written sdrawkcab

yup i know. i had to flip the hog to make it fit in with the light from the picutre. it didn't look right the other way round

it wasn't really a final piece either, just a test, i'm trying to learn how to do it right

will probably end up redoing the pic with some more stuff going on

Ah, ok. Just wondered if that was one of the little boo-boos I always seem to make and not catch until I'm done (like miss-spelling a name on a noseart or forgetting to add a layer), so I figured I'd say something.

Looks great though, keep practicing, can't wait to see the next test.
