Description
Of the tanks and troops that rolled ashore during D-Day, most wouldn't make it past the beaches.
The Sherman DD (Duplex Drive) was an attempt to make a tank that could come ashore under it's own power, how-ever, due to heavy weather and low free-board, most of these tanks swamped before ever reaching the beach...
Sherman is my old model from sharecg, with props from my D-Day village set and landscape by Porsimo
Converted to water-colour in Photo-impressions 4 after render in Daz 2.3

Cool! Thanks for the history on the Sherman, highly enjoyable read. (Thanks also for your gallery. Your influence might not show in any of my renders but the inspiration I found here was pivotal in my approach to lighting the last few months.)

As someone who is fascinated by all things WW2, I love this image and your brief history of the Sherman. Really cool render.

Watercolor. That is why it looks like that. Very nice.

You aren't going to get me in a submarine like that. If they had artists at D-Day...they must have had huge trouble keeping dirt off the paper! Full-on mayhem going on here, and the postwork makes an interesting variation.
