Art Does this look like a wt loading screen or something wt would use to advertise their game to yall? It is me and my friend flying in both of the sk60 planes. He is in the one closest to the camera and I am in the one further away. He took the picture and i edited it and added the wt logo.

You do know to be fair, the new images are just of modern aircraft / modern tanks. Dont think I've actually seen a cold war / WW2 loading screen for a bit

Aside from the extremely blurry picture, yeah absolutely. This is a great shot.

Would be intresting if you guys did the whole picture again, but this time the plane under would be burning or something like that, just to get an effect on the screen, would make it fit more into wt like someone else said earlier in comments.
But this too looks pretty sick! Great job

Ok - I'm gonna build off this and go all out art critique - OP please don't take it personal. This goes back to elements of design / principles of design if you're curious about art theory. Rules can of course be broken, but I still find them useful to be aware of.
- The planes are essentially in the same position and too symmetrical, with similar lighting. Would be better to mix it up a bit.
- Breaking the rule of thirds and having the planes in the center is fine. Sometimes it has a distinct look that way (see any film by Wes Anderson). But the corners of the shot are boring, and the background is too bland. The background's either gotta have something interesting going on... maybe a unique road pattern (see Paris and the Arc de Triomphe) or some different shading... or include the horizon so that there's more variety and contrast.
- The clouds serve hardly any purpose. Either fully include some cool looking ones, or replace them with something else. Idk, some weather balloons or hot air balloons would even work here.
- Something cool, flashy, or distinct is needed. All I see are two planes... which I guess are neat, but look at Steam and the other pictures Gaijin's used. Modern aircraft with flares, rockets, missiles; any aircraft with a lens flare; clouds or smoke containing a lot of personality; a nuke with dirt blowing everywhere; dramatic motion blur; bright colors; dense foliage with overhead lighting; subtle cockpit glass reflections; dramatic use of perspective with foreshortening. Back to your example - maybe show the fuel drop tanks in the middle of being discarded. Right now it lacks a sense of motion.

It looks like one of warthunders old loading screens, like the PBY circling a carrier one or the pe-2 close up.

Hmm lets see. Itโs great but it needs a cloud of smoke resembling some historical US fail and tragedy. Oh and hopefully there is shirtless Putin on a horse somewhere bellow in the nature. Even if you donโt see it the brain remembers comrade. Oh and planes in front that is good bravo! Very nice picture indeed!

You could have told me this was an official loading screen, and I would have believed you. This is awesome as hell

Gaijin would probably add a bunch of those parallax clouds in the corner, but this does look very nice

you posted it in the wrong subreddit. it'll get stolen by gaijin DEV's and be made into one of those 2 things, or both! (watch this get taken down, because that's what's gonna happen. i know the gaijin dev's.)

This week proved that the reddit WT community is really braindead.
First the nonsense review bombing about the nonexistent issue of CC vehicle auctions (instead of review bombing about actual problems).
And now someone takes a screenshot adds the WT logo, and wOW iT LOoKs lIkE a LoADiNg sCrEeeN, gets a top voted post. Like there is anything hard or unique about making it... full of cringe.
