  • Rebel fighters find themselves in a heated battle while attacking an Imperial weapons facility...
    Thanks for watching my Star Wars space battle animation! This was really fun to do, as I've worked out a lot of issues from my previous film, and am still looking forward to improving and doing more scenes in the future.
    This is part of Remnant: A Star Wars Fan Series, which is meant to tell a classic Empire vs. Rebels story through a series of small vignettes, mainly space battles and lore videos.

    I love how the facility doesn’t turn into a nuclear bomb after being hit, it simply loses power, stops working and starts falling into the planet (since it no longer has its engines acting against the planet’s gravity)

    • @scotthalbert2583
      @scotthalbert2583 2 года назад +14

      Even if it was using engines to hold it in position, for it to "fall" like that would mean it's IN the atmosphere of the planet. Orbit decays gradually and this notion of ships doing a nose dive when disabled like an aircraft in an atmosphere is maddening.
      All Star Wars films seem to share this incredibly odd notion and it's really a poor thought process. Don't get me wrong here, these vids have been entertaining but I do wish that they would at least apply some basic logic to how objects move in space and in orbit.

      @scotthalbert2583 2 года назад +4

      ​@@psammiad "Space Magic"? It's called physics and the laws of inertia still apply in space where an object in motion will continue in motion. So a ship that becomes disabled in orbit will still continue it's trajectory in orbit until the gravity of the planet eventually causes it to come in contact with the atmosphere of the planet (if it has one) and then depending on the angle of entry the object will either skip off the atmosphere or begin burning up on entry. Not stop dead, nose down and dive into the atmosphere.

    My favorite part has to be the damaged X-wing losing an engine, the feel of the pilot trying to turn, and failing. More often than not WW1/WW2 fighters were not lost because of a flaming explosion but because the pilot lost control of their craft and crashed.

  • @Heresy488

    I watch a lot of these animations, and this one is excellent. I have a couple of points, though, that I wish film-makers would recognise:
    1 - When a fighter is shot and explodes in space the explosion, smoke and debris will keep travelling at the same speed as the fighter, not suddenly stop.
    2 - When something is in orbit, be it a ship, or a space station, it will not suddenly start to fall when it loses power. Similarly, a ship that loses power will not slow down and stop.

    This is so cool! I'm so excited to see, finally, a channel making videos like this!
    If I had a suggestion to make here, it'd be to kind of adjust the explosion effects. You've got them so that the fireball kinda darkens into a cloud of smoke, but, as I learned from a Corridor Crew video (in the VFX Artists React series), that's not the best way to do it.
    I'd love to see more debris from destroyed ships too, twisted bits spinning off in all directions, but I imagine that would take a lot of work to figure out.
