) shots. I'm not 100% happy with them but they're pretty much there.There's one shot in particular I dont like too much I wont say which and see if people bring it or not.
the avi is at https://www.alanwoods.co.uk/files/largeCut.avi
File is about 11megs and in Divx 5
Sound effects etc are all on the way
Lets hear what you think

Ps. I spent an hour painting out (by hand! and I still havent even got half of them!) these studid little green dots that the maya renderer seems to feel are necessary to inflict on my renders! grrrrrrrr!!!

That is soooo cool man!
Great job!
ps - LOVE the smoke! Especialy the "smoke-cam" shots when the camera is mounted to your plane looking at the trailing smoke!

I've learnt loads and I'm thinking of a couple of projects where I could use the techniques I learnt again (in a VERY different way) so I will fix it there Alan

It's got a really nice feel to it. I've got a few crits on the animation but you've already explained what you're doing with the flocking program and it makes sense.
Overall I'd say the project makes you want a whole lot more and that's a good thing. You've got the technical side telling enough story that it makes you feel like character, plot, obstacles and development are missing. And sound!
Nice colour palette. Nice sense of space when the camera is panning in across the floor and under the wing of the plane taking off.
Right on! looking forward to future projects from you.

Only thing i don't like is that long pause in one of the first shots. Nothing happens its boring. I love the rest tho!
