This looks really good so far!

One note for you: how are you doing the motion blur?  Are you doing "real"
motion blur or is it faked using transparent discs or something?  For the near
plane on the furthest propeller, there is some specular reflection on it, I
would expect to see this 'smeared' across the motion blurred areas as well.
(as an aside, true motion blur would not leave a single static oject amongst
the motion blurred ones unless a flash or someting is used to highlight a
particular instant, but we often see it this way or assume it should be, so you
can take a little artistic license)
