Superb image and caption. Thank you for creating this wonderful testament to our brave women and men in the armed services. The tank is exceptionally well done.

happy forth and love the display of arms here

wow that is very nice image!!!:)

Love the update. The other one is in tents all over the world! Someone asked about a t-shirt I said I'd ask, so I'm asking. BJ

Woohoo!!!!!!! Proud to be American. We aren't perfect but we try.

Fantastic Render. If I may add a niggly, For a pure USMC (SemperFi, OOHRAH) tribute, replace the USAF F-16s with AV8 Harriers. Just a niggly, this is Great.

wonderful image and dedacation to our guys and gals in uniform! HOOOOOOOORAAA! A+ 5

THANK YOU ALL & @ Bill Wa, I'll take a nigghly, the AV8 Harrier'll have to be a dream for now; unfortunately, this poor grunt has exhausted his budget for 3D models for the near future - it ain't like trading baseball cards yanno? OOHRAH

Though the reasons for going to war (any war) may be far from clear, the ultimate sacrifices that ordinary men and women make through the conduct of their duty are no less because of it. A fitting tribute indeed.

Amazing artwork and message!! God Bless the Troops and keep them safe!!!

Ahhh sazzart. You really don't like my comments do you? Artistically, all I said is that it looked 'static'. And I stand by that comment. The planes do not look as though they are flying...hence....static. The lack of response by me on that 'simplistic' 'thingie' is due to the fact that I hadn't read it yet. DUH.....

"Original comment @ turner: "@turner: FYI, everything in this design is custom workmanship, from the sky down. Thanks for demonstrating your appreciation of that fact." Follow up: I don't get paid to do 3D Art 101 here; so I'll just say this & other experienced Brycers can verify my response: 'custom workmanship' in the sense of I hardly use stock or preset skies, mats, textures or what have you anymore in creating my Bryce designs. 'Nuff said there. While I'm NOT holding my breath; I noticed your lack of response to my ??? under that simplistic "No Comment" thingie you posted, if only to see what kind of mental hoops you employ - as a "student of human behavior" I find it very amusing at times, pathetic otherwise, when people somehow fly off in the face of certain facts, could almost say it defies common sense. Ahhh turner. It's neither a matter of liking or disliking your comments. Personally, my view is that everyone has their own art vision, and how to try to realize it, as does the viewer - fellow artist or not, hence the inerrant subjectivity of most comments...Which is ok; except some individuals don't seem capable of distinguishing between subjective opinionatedness & constructive art critiquing. I guess I've reached an age where relevancy is more important than word gaming for example. As far as the "DUH" goes, my comment arose from the response speed of your earlier responses, ok.

Semper Fi !!!! Great tribute.... and just like my young says "Dad, the good guys ALWAYS win." Those are called Marines..... -chachi

Outstanding!! i like it!!

Once again, a fine picture. If not Harriers, you can try F-18s. But any fast mover is preferable to nothing--F-16s hammering the bad guys from above are always welcomed. My preference is pull back a bit and let the B-52s pay a visit, but they tend to leave one heck of a mess.

Now that the "HOOOOOOOORAAA!" is over I'd like to quietly pay my respects to the men and women of the American and British forces, including my brother. This image will always remind me of the suffering in Iraq... excellent work Stephen

"There's those who never comment kindly, and love downgrade rankings. Just as recent terrorist activities in England & Scotland aptly demonstrate, there's groups & individuals, regardless of nationality, creed or class standing, who've shown they are INCAPABLE of civilized behavior." Luckily these "Terrorists" in Britain were complete idiots and therefore failed. Interesting that some people believe that these aggressions came out of nothing. These People are doing wrong, but they believe to have reasons to do so. Start to learn what we did to others, before complaining about being attacked innocently. Keep your troops out of other countries and these terrorist attacks will stop. God bless America. But he should have put more oil into the grounds of Texas instead the soil of Arabia. We wouldn´t need to send troops for securing our oil from the Arabs. Learn why we fight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afBMu6gGdK8

Great Dedication to the USMC Stephen
