Type941, those overhead shots are amazing. Is pascals particles really that good or is that good editing? :88) :rotfl:

I edited, but yes, they are very good.

Could you post the stock shot versions of those overhead views? I'd like to see what the stock particles look like.

Download Pascal's mod and test it yourself, it might look different on your system, but on mine it's like that (resized down to 800-600).

Lovely details, the oranges, the bacon and stuff, and also good "acting" by you, the expression on your face fits in the scene very well! :up:

(...although bad guys might think you just sh*t your pants by the way you are looking around... ; - ) <-- please don't feel offended, just a joke! ;)

No offense taken, I agree with you, my acting skills are awful. It took some doing to get the photograph lighting to approximate the lighting in the sub, so the only pose of mine that I took that had the light right on the hat -- (no matter how hard I try, I just can't "hit my mark" as an actor) -- also made me look constipated. On the other hand, at least I have an expression at all. The in-game characters are not wonderful actors, either, as their poses can be really stiff and unbalanced. I ended up re-working the kaleun to look more like a rendered computer character, and re-working the computer characters (their hair, clothing, and facial expressions) to look a bit less like clones.

One of my original intentions was to have some water pouring into the shot, and I was to be looking at that, but after I did the main composition of the picture, I realized that it would be difficult to get all of the other actors looking at the proper focus point.

I did include a lot of other little details that not only fill out the image, but they were also time consuming. If you just glance at the picture, you miss a lot of the subtle stuff.

You know, it might not be a bad idea for me to post a tutorial on how "Crush Depth" was put together. I have saved my progess on this image religiously, so I can show anybody who is interested all of the steps. I would be happy to do this in another thread, and when Admiral Mrs. Twelvefield isn't keeping me busy.

VON_CAPO: That last pic is a farcking hilarious! :rotfl:

Kind of reminds me of this pic:

http://stunned.net/sunken-u-boat.jpg

Syxx, where is that?

I have no idea. I'm pretty sure it is just a photoshop. It was one of the first images to pop up when I typed in U-boat for a Google image search. :lol:

It definitely is a Photoshop job - I've seen the separate images. The sub is actually one of the surviving museum pieces (I forget which one).

by going to that image website, they mention it's just a nazi u-boat or whatever and seem to have very little interest on it. I wonder what that is!

U-7's second victory, captured forever on the watch officer's brand new Kine Exakta.

:rotfl: Don't be too hard, when the bomb starts to fall, every ship is for itself. This one wanted to go into sub bunker to hide. :up:

Here's some more historic looking shots.

@ Jotte

Perhaps the captain of that destroyer used to command a U-Boat and got a little mixed up.

Yeah, and he seems to have followed me from my first patrol as he did this back in Kiel too but then he beached it so it blew up. :o
