I re-rendered this one 9 times before finally getting the effect I was looking for. All between 2 and 17 hours each, I feel I may be getting too critical.

Dogfight

It was tough trying to find how the guns fire on the Mustang. I found an old flight training manual for the plane that said the guns fire simultaneously so that the push on the plane is even. The bombers are in a Group Javelin Down formation, the differences in altitude make them appear out of place.
