The next scene to complete was the cannons scene, this was very difficult as I have to make several weapons fire on the ship, so I had to use a few particle systems to make this work and change the properties of each particle system so that they didn't overlap at the wrong times. After much messing about I have finally finished the second scene for the animation and am very pleased with how it has turned out and hope the group like it too. It was basically a 'SuperSpray' particle system with the fireworks preset loaded, so that the smoke sprayed outwards. From there once I had made one I needed to make more but I decided to not make them all from scratch and just drag across copies, this did end up saving me a lot of time. I also needed to add metal balls for the weapons to use as ammunition, which if you look closely below you should see a small metal ball.
This screenshot shows the start of the cannons firing animation and I am very pleased with how it has turned out.
The last scene to work on was the ship sinking scene, as already predicted it was quite simple I just needed to change the position of the ship at different times so that it apperead to be sinking. furthermore I also added in an explosion so there was a reason for the ship sinking, and thought that this was very good, however there is a part of me that thinks that the explosion could have been better but am pleased with how it has turned out non the less.
I am pleased with how this has turned out.
Thats it, all my scenes are ready for rendering now which I am pleased about and I am also pleased with how the scenes have turned out sometimes they were very fiddly, however it was worth it.
