The idea and execution is fab, the compositing of the jet matching the natural light of the plate well. The high level of detail on the jet along with the texturing aids the final look and because of the detail the light reacts like it would as if you had just photographed the jet.

The weakness for me is just the chosen plate, I think because of the surrounding cars it makes the jet look very small and takes alot of the power of the machine. Also the camera is probably a little too close and would probably be affected by the jet wash as it begins to move.

Other than the plate, the work here is great and you have great compositing skills and you should be chuffed with the result.

This is a very good piece of work, and the issues it has takes nothing from the kudos you deserve. Great work. oh and pm me, I think I have a still of a test we did ages ago for smoke from a harrier.

great modelling and textures, blends really well with the backplate
Brilliant

Really top class modeling. Great lighting, textures and a well put together animation - with some minor tweaks needed to give it that extra reality.
Brilliant work - love it

great job ! The final video is great !
Near perfection !

The overall sequence is fun to watch.
The light direction doesn't seem to be accurate compared to the cars in the background and the plane isn't well integrated, it looks a bit stuck onto the background. Maybe because of the colour grade on the plane (grade/black levels/etc...). The reflections on the plane are not moving when it's taking off.
Also you might want to slow down the animation as it takes off: it makes it look less realistic.
You also might want to add a few flying leaves or other things of that nature to get a better integration.

A really well done video integration and animation. Good!

This is an excellent piece of work, seemless composition, excellent model, and great texturing.
I cant fault it. :)

Superb work mate :)

Great job! It looks very realistic and it holds up extremly well in the video as well. Especially liked the wobble when it left the ground.
The texturing is awesome too, nice touch with the burn/dirt marks comming from the air-intake/thrusters.

Can´t really find anything to pick on.. sorry :/ :P

Well maybe.. but that is a loongshot hehe.. The lift-of should affect the environment more I guess with lots and lots of dust and trees rattling but then you would have had to build the entire environment as well which might be quite an overkill in this case ;)

Rock on!
