        hey, thanks for the comments, and with regards to the photoshop version im looking to capture the speed and camera focus πŸ˜„ do you have any tips on how to focus the forground and blur out the background? i have a rough idea and am playing around with filters at the moment and overlays?

                How DID you make the random scatter of pieces? Same question as Solo's, was SketchyPhysics involved?

                    no sketchy physics , i used a plug in caled grow and it copys a shape you make in x y z dirctions with rotations. i did this then manualy moved them to make them look non generated.

                            ...So you're doing something a bit like this?
                            These hole aren't that great, it's just an example.
                            If so, components put to "cut hole" are very useful, if you want to make multiple similar holes. I don't know how helpful that advice is, but i felt like saying it anyways πŸ˜„

                              yep thats what im doing at mo just testing it out at the moment. πŸ˜„

                              below is my version, but i think having the parts falling in the previous image look better and allows the mind to think where its falling from, with the whole it leaves nothing to the imagination

                              I feel it detracts from the focus of object falling through
