Description 'There were ships of shapes and sizes scattered out along the bay
and I thought I heard her calling as the steamer pulled away
the invaders must have seen them as across the coast they filed
standing firm between them there lay Thunder Child.'

Jeff Waynes the War of the Worlds

Thunder child is the name of the warship, bit a strange name I know...this is kinda along the same vein as The Spirit of Man [link] , anyone who knows me will know my obsession with all things H.G.Wells. I didnt want the actual explosion to look too much like an explosion, more like a big flash of light in the night sky. Absolutely no reference used, getting into bad habits again...

I like the atmosphere of this one, even I don't like the movie, I like this one. (actually haven't seen the movie, but you know I don't like sci-fi) but probably, no word is better!

Yah, I know about you and sci-fi, and you know about my opinion of the film, even the aliens looked rubbish.

thanks Bev, really wanted to do this in the animation, but that would require an enormous flat tank of water, I can just imagine the complications!
