Schneeds Posted October 29, 2014 (edited) I picked up a used 10030 recently and decided it was nearly perfect except for the lack of detailing on the engines and the top of the bridge super structure design. For some reason they designed that element in a vertical fashion, instead of horizontally as it is on the original model. So I did a quick change to this: Simple, but definitely changes the look of it. I also raised the height of the super structure a stud and changed the connection point to give it a more smooth and accurate look.

Veynom Posted October 29, 2014 I always like a tiny but helpful MOD. Good job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thorg23 Posted October 29, 2014 The original star destroyer model used in ANH actaully did have a vertical tower. Since the 10030 is obviously intended to be the Devastator (given the inclusion of the Tantive IV model), the vertical tower is correct. There is a detailed look at all the different bridge models used in the films here: http://www.theforce.net/swtc/towers.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was working off this source material: http://www.modelermagic.com/?p=11205 Looking back at the actual movie screens you are correct though. Appears they mislabeled that. I guess I upgraded mine to an Imperial II-class ;) Edited October 29, 2014 by Schneeds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PromocjaLego Posted October 30, 2014 I like this, very good MOD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unhappyeeyore Posted February 8, 2015 Definately one to consider along with adding the details to the vastly underdetailed engine area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schneeds Posted February 9, 2015 I actually modded the entire bridge section in the spirit of Jerac's masterpiece, so it has a complete conversion to an Imperial II-class star destroyer. I'll get some pictures up at some point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
