Description
Fleet actions (ship to ship) are really quite rare in both world wars. This is my idea. I'm still working on the smoke and flash from the main guns.
The ships are modified from those by SMM. He has numerous good freebies found in DAZ and here. The rest is standard Vue.

Yes indeed a great idea.

Also, work on the ship's wake. It would be far more ragged and uneven, not so perfectly straight-edged, even had the ship been traveling in a straight line as you have shown. Also, try showing the ships in "Line Ahead" or "Battle Formation", that is, one steaming after the other, which was standard fleet tactics in battle, right up to the end of the battleship era. I think too, if you change the image to a grainy black and white "Old" style photo, like the shots taken during World War I, or even II, it might like more "realistic", since there is very little color photography or film showing this type of event. Only later in WWII, was color used, since the chemicals used in color photo development were used in war production elsewhere. Oh, and darken the gunpowder smoke and ship's smoke from the stacks a little more...
