Star Gate unit: Asgard Mothership

[TheMorpheus]

Thankx for the suggestions

I have some questions:
1. Do we need shadows?
2. Should there are explosions at the target of the beams?
3. Should the beams are moving?

Here two shots of the current model

The Asgard attack animations actually look different than what you have currently.

Here is a sample of the Asgard ship in action, to get an idea of what it looks like.

A bit of info on Asgard ships. Since the attack is pure light, there isn't really a shadow. They are also instantanious, so there's no phaser effect like in Star Trek. I would think the beams should be still, but flash on and off, not constant as they are now.

The ship uses neutrino ion engines that cause it to produce a reaction in the atmosphere of most planets' atmospheres to create a darkish cloud that covers its landing area, and if moving provides dark clouds with a bluish energy coming from its engines. In space these clouds don't exist because there is no atmosphere to react with.

Just some comments. By the way, this unit is looking amazing.

DS_CL the question about the shadows depends on the ship itself, should the ship produce a shadow on ground?

Thanks for the infos , but I can't access the AVI

An incredible unit TheMorpheus! I'm amazed by your excellence! Good luck with this, can't wait for it to be finished!

 

[TheMorpheus]

Sorry DS_CL, but I couldn't connect to the server at icestorm.ath.cx:81/duanescorner/.....
Could you upload the file to the forum or it is too large?

Brilliant unit Morpheus!

I wouldn't be too worried about getting it absolutely perfect, it's great as it is.

 

[DS_CL]

Yeah, this probably isn't worth the hassle I think it is great as it is as well. This is just a picture of the ship in action. One more try.

Sorry to burst in on this guys but i'm a hard core Stargate SG1 Fan! The Asgard have a wide range of weapons at their disposal. The Beam like weapon you identified DS_CL is used mainly on ground operations due to the Asgards small fradgile boddies. In space combat however they use a bolt like weapon mutch like a Federation Quantum Torpedo but far more powerfull. This was featured in the eposode "Reverlations" when Anubis challanged the Asgard directly by attacking a protected planit. The Asgard responded in force and Thor was dispached to the planit. When Thor Fired at Anubis i expected a beam but several eglant white bolts swiftly propelled from the bow of the Asgard ship into Anubis.

Just putting in my two cents

Actually it was the Series Finale for Stargate SG1(And what a good finale it was BTW) I loved the ship battles between the Prometheus and its X-302 fighters and Anubis' fleet, very Star-Wars-estue.

Like I said before, the finale was the very last episode of SG-1, the next Stargate series starts this July with "Stargate Atlantis"

Sword_of_Geddon, i hate to bust your bubble dude, but there IS going to be a season 8 for Stargate SG-1. The Atlantis series is a spin off.

Yes mate seson seven has already finished (that was the best season ever! ) and season eight is on the way! (CANT WATE) Then as Thorgrimm pointed out Atlantis is a spin off will begin some time in the summer (in the UK anyway).
