"Very, very nice mockup, Darth Venal. I do think that the Death Star should point lower, though. Can you post a video clip of this?"

 

Actually, it's nowhere near finished and I only stuck the Death Star in to show where it will be. There will also be at least two ships flying away from the reverse of Alderaan but getting obliterated by the debris. If our tests go well, we'll also be putting in an insert of an aged Bail Organa on one of the ships (probably a Blockade Runner, even though it's not the Tantive IV).

One thing about the Death Star, though; in the original scene, the beam is clearly coming down at Alderaan at an angle, and to match that with the firing dish makes the Death Star look like it's off axis. Maybe that's why you don't see it in the same shot when it fires. Hmm, I'll see what I can do...

Oh, about this being the wrong thread, I wasn't sure where to put it! Sorry, bit new to all this, not sure what goes where just yet.
