The animation I post here is the first four seconds of a much longer animation.
It's another invasion animation, and these ships are the invading ships.  They
are in orbit of my lovely alien world that I created, and I was hoping for some
feedback on the actual animation itself, or any of the models.
The video can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtTvn6ZTxhc.

It is not much right now, but I've already gotten several other scenes rendered.

The spacing of the ships looks too regular. While that's probably 
realistic (given that Blue Angels manage it in an atmosphere), it 
doesn't *look* realistic. It makes the individual ships look like 
they're part of something bigger, methinks.  Try spacing them a bit more 
"randomly".

I think that just spacing them farther apart would do the trick. I would
say make the distance between adjacent ships be at least the length of
an individual ship.

A little randomness could help, too, if it's not overdone.

You know you've been raytracing too long when you use unfavorable
religious expressions to describe those who don't raytrace.
