Description


Don't have any specific story, this time. One of my favorite WWII movies is "They Were Expendable." (The other being "Twelve O'Clock High.") Anyway, I very much had the former in mind when I created this picture. Sky, Water, and torpedo tubes (except for the firing controls by sirmacman) are by me. The large ship is the "CSS Thunderer (SteamPunk)" by sirmacman. Smoke: "Natural Smoke" by keihan (Renderosity). The airboat "Desolation Earth - Gator Joe Swamp Boat" is by Marforno, Danie, and Abraham (DAZ); although I did slightly alter their texture. Vegetation is "Modualz Flora - Cattails" and by Modualz (RDNA) Not sure who made the papyrus but think it might be Traveler (RDNA). The figures are A3 realistic with clothing "Rudi for Aiko 3" by MAB and Will Dupré (DAZ). That's it until next time, when I'll be posting my 300th picture at Renderosity. Hard to believe. As always, thanks for the comments pro and con and for just stopping by and taking a look. Jeremy

This reminds me of a scene from 'The African Queen' with Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn (an all time favorite movie). Of course, this is a MUCH updated and with more modern weaponry, but the essence is much the same. At any rate, excellent image!

Yes, I meant to mention "The African Queen" as well. That was what was the original genesis of the picture, but then I got to thinking about "They Were Expendable" and added the torpedo tubes. As for Django's comment about the sky and steamboat, I wanted it coming out of the mist, not yet seen by the little airboat crew and I wanted their world to be only water, mist, and reeds. Perhaps I should have made things a bit more misty.

Good work Kjer. The texturing is solid, the idea is wonderful, and a great use of models and posing. The only improvement (mostly because it's a point I try to be a stickler at on my own work) is the smoke coming out of the stacks of the Thunderer should be drifting with the wind or back from the ship as if it was in motion. Depending on how fast you want the ship to seem, a small wake may be in order, but not if the ship was moving ahead dead slow. Go get em guys! :c)

Outstanding. Yessir - defnately reminded me of "African Queen"... but I don't remember the other movie you mentioned. You did the right amount of fog/mist.
