   Image of the battle for Guadalcanal, in which the battleships USS South
Dakota(foreground), and USS Washington(background), with their escort, opposed
the Japanese force consisting of 2 battleships, cruisers and destroyers. In the
battle the Japanese battleship Kirishima was destroyed by fire comming from the
USS Washington. Image inspired by a painting depicting a battle during the War
of 1812.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

   Everything was created using Blender Creator(Blender 2.20). The ships are
composed of meshes, based mostly on ship plans and photographs (couldn't model
Kirishima for lack of reference material). Used Blender's particle system for
the fire, smoke and the wake.
