Death Glider Attack

[PaulF]

Hello everyone. I'm currently working on a Stargate fanfilm, and this is a little test shot that I did to see if I could convincingly composite my CG Death Glider model into some live-action footage. All the 3D stuff was done in XSI, the compositing was done in combustion.

First, here's a picture of the glider (diffuse maps only):

And here's a before & after picture of the shot:
