These animations are great! You don't need amazing materials and textures when the battles adhere to such clear rules, strategies, and the like. It's also very easy to follow the combat, the fighters aren't moving like beyblades in a washing machine, the way most others animate them.
You did this all by yourself in a freaking hospital bed?? That's awesome!
A good portion of it actually, yes. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@@FarseerAnimation if you ever want models for the animations, CoreyLoses is the leader of the Thrawn's Revenge mod and he's a really cool guy, just talk to him and I'm sure he'd love to jump on these awesome vids!

woah… is that an Imperial Nebulon-B? I know in lore they were originally made for the empire, but I never seen that before, even in fan battles. Looking back through, I can see a couple of them in overarching views of the imperial fleets! That’s a nice touch
Great film, I especially love the damages displayed and the ragtag/worn-down state of the rebel crafts.
So, at the last second. The Second interdictor Ship got blasted by a Suicide Jump drive from an X-Wing? Pretty insane for a rebel Pilot if you ask me.
I know this video is older, but I stumbled across it just before bedtime before a workday. I really enjoyed it, and it's definitely worth the loss of sleep! I'll check through the channel for more star wars type space battles when I get home tomorrow! But you have a sub, a thumbs up, and a comment for the algorithm!
Thanks, it means a lot!
3 his sacrifise will not be forgotem in the rebel alliance .:(

Not the highest polygon count nor the most detailed textures but the animation work with the dog fights is outstanding!
i really appreciate the US of the sovereign Which was a slightly scaled down Eclipse as its never actually built in universe but lit looks SO COOL and seeing SMART tactics instead of the usual plot armour BS where the rebels always seem to pull an impossible win out of their ass is REALLY NICE. all the tiny details like the busted X-Wing are really awesome and really help sell the rag tag resource stripped Rebellion.
This is the kind Star Wars content everyone needs!
I read about a battle like this somewhere in legends. A virus took down the rebels hyperdrives and they had to fight their way out. It was at mon cala I think.
Also, you should team up with some of the big channels, like ec henry and generation tech. I'm sure they'll welcome your talent.
Thanks for keeping the Star Wars magic alive and well my friends.
0:51 Aw! That Liberty cruiser (left one) looks so cute!
But still a great animation
Equally rebellious self-sacrificing.
The laser effect are honestly better than most animations i’ve seen (hell, they’re better than the modern ones). They’re much closer to what you see in the Original trilogy, being way faster and punchier. To me, that’s a much greater sign of quality for a star wars space battle animation than the scene polycount or the texture resolution. Great job.
While I don't have access to traditional film or a proper array of models, I closely studied how ILM implemented the effects back in the day. The modern method tends to involve making laserbolt 'models' and sending them out realistically from ship to ship. That may technically be more accurate to how it would look but it almost always completely misses that snappy timing and visual intensity that an action scene really needs.
All of my laserbolts and such are painted on, frame by frame so each shot feels appropriately punchy.
@@FarseerAnimation I was smiling from ear to ear reading that comment. Thank you.
Physical bolts always leave you with that effect of hanging in any given shot for far too long (especially when travelling parallel to your line of sight, where they eventually become immobile and visual clutter before vanishing into the distance). This, is just beautiful.
Very nice work!! I'll add this to my Star Wars Fan Film playlist!
Max Brandt Thanks, it means a lot!
@@FarseerAnimation it's going in my Awesome Star Wars Stuff playlist, as well! In fact, pretty much every full Star Wars production you've made on this channel has earned that honor. As far as I'm concerned, your work is of excellent quality, and continues to be so! Keep em coming! Also, quick question - what part of the timeline would you consider these battles in? Between episodes 3 and 4, 4 and 5, 5 and 6, or after 6 during the time of the Imperial Remnant?
@@darthknightwingphoenix2081 Thank you! I like to keep things vague about the timeline so people can fill in the gaps. This is implied to take place around the same time at episode 6, give or take a few months.
Farseer Animation oh? I had it at in between episodes 4 and 5, when the rebels were at their strongest hot off the victory at Yavin, gaining more support and new ships, and the Empire was designing new ships and strategies of their own to counter the rebels more directly, since the Tarkin Doctrine had proven ineffective and its architect was dead. I organized my playlist accordingly(I organize it by era - stuff taken from, inspired by, or seeming like it fits in the Old Republic era comes first, then stuff from, inspired by, or fitting in the prequel trilogy, then original trilogy, and so on), and put the videos in between stuff inspired by episodes 4 and 5. Ah, well. Too late to change it, so I’ll go with my interpretation. The rebels take a lot of losses in your videos anyway, which lines up with my interpretation - by the time of Hoth, the relentless retaliation of the Empire had driven the Rebels to new hideouts like Hoth, with a lot of the starships they gained from their new allies having been destroyed in engagements, or hidden elsewhere away from Hoth.
I like your style of animation. Really love that 90s FMV CG graphics aesthetics.
Oooh boy, this one's got SOUL.
Very well done.
That command ship is probably Supreme Commander Skywalker's vessel then, based on it being a Sovereign-class, and what Lucasfilm should've done is to use the already-developed Star Wars storyline, such as here apparently Dark Empire for one.
pritty good.... i see you are adding dirt to the rebel ship texture
I greatly enjoyed this animation
This is really good. You got voice actors in on this?
It's mostly a mix of audio files from the X-Wing game series combined with some EQ editing.
@@FarseerAnimation You guys did a great job. By the way, if you ever wanted someone to provide Voice Over for one of your videos, let me know. I have Voice Over experience.
@@joshuaharrover3205 That would definitely be welcome! Feel free to stop by our discord. The link should be in the description!
@@FarseerAnimation Not seeing any links. Do you guys have any social media like facebook or Instagram?
@@joshuaharrover3205 Updated the description. We only have the discord unfortunately.
2:10 music from shadows of the empire!

This is the first time I have seen your Sovereign Class SSD; however, I immediately recognized it as being closely related to the Eclipse Class SSD, given some of the ship's features. What an interesting battle, and I am quite puzzled by the Imperial commander. Whoever was commanding that fleet made decisions that resulted in the some of the Rebel fleet escaping. I was really puzzled by the decision to not keep the Interdictors in the rear and only to attack with Tie squadrons. The entire Rebel fleet would have been destroyed if the Imperial commander hadn't made those mistakes. I would have definitely taken advantage of those errors to slip surviving ships out of the system and regroup with the rest of the Alliance navy. There should be a follow up for this video wherein an Imperial Grand Admiral admonishes the Imperial officer in charge of this operation for those mistakes.
it's pretty typical tactic for Imperial commanders. A lot of them afraid to damage even one of their assets, so they prefer to use "disposable" equipment like fighters and bombers. In one imperial sourcebook, capitan Piett wrote about one such battle, when only his decisive actions prefer total defeat of imperial battlegroup. When Imperial fully utilises their assets - it's usually a very hard fights for the rebels.
No its because he always wants the rebels to win, even in his previous animations they always win even at the lowest chances of survival. Same boring "rebels win because deux ex machina" story. Why can't we ever see the imperials win? This animation has barely any creativity
@@floseatyard8063 The animation doesn't have to be viewed so harshly :( Just run with it and let your imagination take over
@@mcsmedia8081 yeah I take it back, I was kinda harsh. However the previous animation was just complete rebel plot armour, an SSDs shield blocks hyperspace rams but it didn't in the previous one.
could be letting some go to follow them to the next base or gathering point.
Vader: "Most Impressive"
And people complained about the hyperspace ramming in The Last Jedi this was just as good
This is spectacular!!
Look at the texture on the sovereign class star dreadnought
Your videos have so many weird customized fighters in them. First that one X-wing with two different pairs of engines, now that TIE with the yellow and black wings.
Never been a huge fan of rams like that but I guess against an interdictor they could work.
Wonderful..!!!
i dont know anything about 3d animation but is it possilbe to make the backgrounds darker? i think it'll look better that way but other than that great animation 👍
Thanks, it's not too hard so I'll keep that in mind in the future!
Now that's how your ram a ship
agreed. I didn't care about Holdo at all, because we didn't know a thing about her beforehand, and she didn't tell a single person in the Resistance about her plan despite there being no good reason to not do so, and clear evidence that it was causing a massive drop in morale, but with 3... I wanted him to survive. His ship was damaged from the get-go, but he didn't retreat. He fought on, he worked with his comrades, and it seemed like he might survive. But he sacrificed himself for his comrades, instead of choosing to let others die to ensure his own survival. His was a real underdog story of working with what you've got and overcoming fear for the sake of your comrades in arms. That speaks to me a million times more than Holdo's sacrifice ever could. Still doesn't make hyperspace ramming any less bullcrap, but it helps when there's a good character doing it.
That SSD didn’t just destroy two capital ships, escorts and fighters with a single laser blast did it? Or did it destroy one ship and the rest escaped?
It got them all in the blast. Same thing happens in ROTJ to all of those ships in formation
Great animation. Good storyline.
This part isn’t directed at the content creator. How come is it when the Empire parks their flotilla for blockading purposes, let’s say on the daylight side of a planet, the rebel group escaping the planet doesn’t just fly low in the planets atmosphere and head to the night side of the planet, break atmosphere into space and then escape into hyperspace. They’d be clear of the imperial interdiction fields by employing this escape tactic too.
It's because of hyperspace lanes. To my understanding, some planets can only be accessed via one hyperspace lane. The Empire blockades access to that one hyperspace lane. If there isn't a hyperspace lane on the other side of the planet, then you can't escape through that side.
@@tanner.h if there is you can though
These are great do you have any thing with a lot of b wings??
I believe the Wrath of the Sovereign video has the most focus on B-Wings!
what is the ship called at 3.49 in lower middle right side, feel like ive seen it somewhere before but cant pinpoint where
That’s actually an original design of mine that I added to help give some variety to the rebel fleet. I think I used it for the same purpose in other videos too so that’s maybe where you saw it before?
@@FarseerAnimation awesome that's most likely the case, i did find 2 vessels that looks similar 1 from star wars combine, the Pelagia Duplex Command Assault Gunship and 1 from the star wars fandom site under transports, the WTK-85A interstellar transport. But i must say your design was smashing lad. Loved it
@@bloodgrimgaming2197 Thank you! I still need to name the design. (The file name is literally just Transport) It was originally created as a transport similar to the YT series but from a different manufacturer.
@@FarseerAnimation keep up the fantastic designs, love to see more in the future!
Hey farseer, did you originally go by frog jedi?
Indeed I did
i don't recognize some of the rebel ships
One thing I never understood about Star Wars. Why not just take off from the opposite side of the planet?
I think the in-universe explanation is they can only use their hyperdrives at a specific angle and that's the direction all the blockading ships come from. Out of universe it doesn't really make sense of course.
Did u draw this??
I animated this using the software Lightwave, yes
5:42 what is that freighter?
That's the YT-2000 Otana.
