David,
Here is another motion test of the lantern gun drone beam arm, this time with the emitter pod on top.
I've used a quick renderer for this test and the visual results are in some ways pleasing, but in other ways less so.
This snapshot (above) is using another renderer and shows the inner detail of the emitter pod far better. Well, six of one, half a dozen of the other and the truth is that ultimately I'll be doing some graphics 'wrestling' to make the final still images look the way I want, including adding fake glows, blur, sharpening, color gradients and you name it. But that is in the future. For now, let us all glory in the light of the one, true... er... lantern gun. Ha!
