I know that this is still the **3D Modeling Forum**, but I did want to share the finished modeling product. I hope no one minds too much.

Here are a few stills from the animation I put together. The textures are all temporary seamless tiles and procedurals. You can have a good laugh at it here.

It's only a six second animation, but I think that perhaps for a landing vessel of this scale the entire landing sequence should last much longer. I've also discovered that I forgot to envelope the opacity of the hypervoxels over the life span of the particles. If I ever get around to re-doing the animation, I know I've learned something here. :o)

Thank you very much for all your feedback.

Cheers! M
