Thanks for the comments! This was actually a lot of fun. Though midway through rendering the first time TS crashed and it took me 20 minutes to figure out what was wrong.
Honestly, I think the metal might be a little to 'wet' looking. I might retouch the scene a bit after the competition is over, maybe add some dirt to the objects, add a bit more objects as well. Need some glasses and some coins would be nice.
Also everything in the scene was made by me except the map, which was one of the first google image searches for "old sea map". Wanted to make sure I gave credit due, though not sure who the original map maker was.
