The shot in the clip are new Y-wings taken from an ILM model shot. The original ones were so flat and grey they looked like cardboard cut-outs. this shot is so short it wouldn't be worth all the work to create CG ships. i think the new shots works well anyway and doesn't look like cutouts.

Adywan, can I make a suggestion which might improve the shot? Keep the background stars at the same scale so they don't appear to be part of the painting. Otherwise, nice work (and, uh, thanks for pointing me in the right direction
)

My bad on this one. i rendered 2 different shots for this shot. 1 to use for this shot and a different camera movement shot for when Luke enters the trench. With the Luke shot i have the stars not joined to the new matte but for some reason i forgot to add the new star moving background in the shot in the clip. the stars were there just for movement reference. oh well. i decided that i didn't like the movement of the first trench shot so i have redone it. I've posted a new clip with a split screen comparison so you can see the differences between the new shots and the original SE ones. the shot of the TIEs leaving the docking bay has also been tweaked. Even though they remain in the original speed and flight plan they have independent movement although very subtle.
