Well i have been getting a bit more adventurous with cinema 4d and here is the result so far.. err before i show you, first some excuses :D
I decided that the exercise was to see what i could do with particle systems and to that end the explosions as well as the gunfire are particle based as are the tracer bullets, which are a bit off target !!, so the gunfire is not quite right, i have to work on the parameters
The terrain is a terragen mesh with a terragen image used as a material
The next challenge was the propellors, previously i had simple circles to depict them , this time i put i real props but as computers are not designed for the blur effect our eyes see and since increasing rotation time does not really get the effect i added 2 sets to each plane with motion blur. I have not got the hang of repeating sequences so there are a lot of stutters
the me109 does a bit of an odd leap and seems to turn into a ship on the final blast, have to work on that, i made the final blast too fast so you don't see the debris
and finally a moral... never carry schnaps in your me109 when going into battle, it is just to flammable :p
