OMG COOL.

But I have two complaints.

1. The background should be blurry, not the ships.

2. The red tint on the ships should be turned down, and it looks odd how some of the ships are tinted while others aren't--there should be some sort of transition.

Actually, having the background rather clear, while ships are blurred, is done intententionally, as the viewer is rather static(maybe moving back slowly), while the fighters come swarmed towards him.

I'll review the tint though. thanks for the hint.

Check here :D

Actually, if you'd see a swarm of Dhilani Fighters coming at you from this angle and distance, it won't matter to you anymore what they looked like :p

The ships are moving, so they should be blurry!
The music industry is a cruel and shallow money trench where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

Depends on the capture speed of the camera that is somehow out in a vacuum with someone to take the picture.

Add some engine trails, even faint ones will enhance the image. Looks nice otherwise...but square :p
