Well this ship is doomed... all sails set? noooo... in a storm a ship would be reduced to minimum sails, maybe one mainsail for each mast, the spanker off the driver yardarm fore and aft from the mizzen mast, possibly a staysail set between the masts, and one jibsail set on the jib boom... all to give the ship steerageway without the danger of "tearing the sticks outta her" (too many sails set would dismast the ship)… Also, the gunports would all be closed in anything but very calm weather, for fear of water shipping aboard through the ports and sinking the vessel... and as the ship crashes through each wavecrest, where is the spray as the bow cuts through each??? As I have said before to others how try to render a "realistic" scene like this... "research, research, research... now, the critique is over, you have actually captured the size of the waves to the vessel pretty accurately, and the dark, stormy atmosphere is well render too... oh, one observation… make the sunbeams actually rain, slashing down and I think it would really make the scene very ominous... overall, a good start...
