It seems that you are now doing BLUEISH 'electrical' lasers for the ION Cannon adywan, which is great news as far as I'm concerned.  But how about changing the over-'painterly' looking multi-coloured lasers seen on the round Rebel gun emplacements too? -

Here's a reminder of how the current 'multi'-coloured lasers look -

....and here's a different 'multi'-coloured shot where we see a round gun emplacement with an ORANGEY 'power-up' initially (note: the previous example seemed to have a GREENISH 'power-up') - 

Instead of the unconvincing-looking 'rainbow'-coloured lasers seen here, would you consider making them the same overall colour as the initial 'power-ups'?  Either totally GREENISH or totally ORANGEY (or both, such as in both examples above)....or even totally YELLOWISH or BLUEISH, I guess.

As long as they were a contrasting colour to the samey PINKISH colour of all the other lasers in the battle, they'd still look visually interesting.

Some nice work there yoda1138, and I really liked seeing the GREENISH laser firing from the round Rebel gun emplacement in your clip.

I remember that adywan didn't give an answer to this one when it was brought up ages ago, but I'm still curious to know if he's wanting to keep the 'rainbow'-coloured lasers shown here, or not.  I was never keen on them myself, as I didn't think they looked as convincing as the other lasers throughout the movie.  I always think the example shown at the top looks especially false.

Whether totally GREENISH or ORANGEY (or some other colour), I'd just prefer to see a less 'multi'-coloured laser overall.  As long as they were a different colour to the PINKISH ones of the AT-AT/Snowpeeder lasers, then they'll still make for an interesting contrast.

Also, I always felt that there should have been a noticeable 'scorch mark' shown on the AT-AT leg after it was hit by the 'multi'-coloured laser.
