Alright, so this was a model i made just for fun, but it turned out so ridiculously epic that i just had to upload it. The texture is just one of water ripples which i ran some glass filters over, and then i animated it to flow and pulsate. Do yourself a favor and check it out in magos model editor for the full experience.
The model comes with animation sets for normal and large size. The model is billboarded onto the Z axis so that it will not spin around awkwardly when units you might attach it to move around (and it also hides the seam on the side).
I am also uploading a small version, which is half the size, and also has a different wrap. There is also a low-res alternative to the texture, but frankly i would advice everyone who has the space for it to use the high-res version since it just looks that much better.
