oh!....an improvement of the same effect? mmmm Angel did a great job with the part closest to the hull, maybe keep that and leave out the trails....? (yeah Trekkish all the way)

In the actual shot, the effect doesn't bother me at all until a trail begins to show... the boost itself looks fine, but toward the end of the shot, when a trail begins to show, it looks like animation.

These first 3 images of the shot look fine to me:

These next 4 images? Not so much:

Yeah, it's definitely the trail that bothers me. It looks drawn onto the frame (which I'm sure it was.)

So again I ask, will there be any fixes planned for this, Ady?

Thinking further on this, I began to question... is there ANY other shot anywhere in the OT where the trail gets this long other than in this shot? The Falcon's engines have a boost in a few shots throughout the OT if I remember right, but I'm not sure if there was ever a trail left as long as the one in the shot of the MF turning around. It appears to be over-exaggerated in this one sequence compared to the rest of the OT!

Perhaps it would be better to just lessen the trail by not making it as long? Or just removing the trail altogether and just leave the image of the boost itself? I'm just thinking about continuity with this suggestion, but maybe I'm wrong and the trail is shown in another shot in the OT somewhere, but I don't recall.
