This is a little project I am working on while being recently made unemployed. The models are still really rough, but i hope to use them for an animatic before doing all out one day.

its early, but any solid constructive criticism would be appreciated.

To be honest though, your model could use a lot more definition, main body, canopy, wings and engines are all one uninterrupted surface. Introducing more edges to make some sharp(er) corners, and making some parts their own objects could help a lot
I have added a test fire animation that i used a simple particle system on. I know it needs to be tweaked, but I would like some healthy input to make this past shine.
what a nice and fresh idea !
Yeah, I think I may take the animation to being more of a cartoon version. I just need to create characters, which I have not tried yet.
RE: The Particle System Test Fire. Personally I can't think of a better option, but maybe someone here with more knowledge has a suggestion. The only thing I'd suggest is adding a glow to the particles so they stand out a bit more, but then you have to deal with the glow effect flickering as the particles move away from the camera view.
Updated the look sightly. Still would like some thoughts on this before I duplicate them.
