Empire II

Empire II introduction shot. I wanted this to feel like the opening chapter of a game or movie, and I always liked having your titles interact with the image a little bit.

Introduction shot of the bad guys' ships. I initially planned for a much larger fleet but my 3D scene was getting slow so I lost that idea along the way.

Here is the commander of the fleet, brooding over the assault that is about to unfold. We can only guess at his motives.

The first strikes hit the invisible strategic defense barrier. Will the denizens of this moon strike back? For how long will the barrier hold?

Full selection of keyframes I had planned before cutting down on them.

First iteration of the project, with some really terrible color choices.

The idea for this first came when I was creating a simple sun-earth-moon setup in Blender Eevee. I just wanted to throw some quick spaceships in there and see the result.
