Executor Super Star Destroyer

[nopingrid]

After building my Star Destroyer Avenger, I knew I had to build an Executor. This model is around 65cm long, and it is extremely detailed and accurate to the real thing. Once again, I went for a stud-less look which helped to contrast the textured greebling section. To add more contrast, I decided to use DBG for the greebling instead of LBG as seen on some other models. I also used transparent light blue pieces to represent lights of the ship. 

I tried to replicate the strips of greebling as seen on the ILM model,  but I was quite limited by the space and depth. So, I used some pieces pointing forward to create a sense of direction to the greebling. You can also see more of the transparent light blue pieces here at the top.

Just like the official sets, I designed a small star destroyer in the same scale to pair with this Executor. It uses cheese grater slopes to get the correct angle instead of wedge plates because I didn't want studs. The pointed wedge plates are also the wrong angle for an ISD which is another reason why I didn't use those. 

Instructions can be found on my Rebrickable, and I've also made a YouTube video showcasing the model!

Oh hell yes!
Great looking build.  The contrast between the smooth paneling and the 'city scape' details works so well - especially with the color change.  Great technique to achieve the aft cutaway angles.  Can't tell from the photos, but any issues with drooping?  Nice work - and very professional photography - thanks for posting this.

Than you, the front isn't very heavy so there shouldn't be any drooping.

Wow this looks very sleek! The studless hull vs the greebling is such a good idea. It really draws your eye in!

Wow, that's completely awesome. And I love the supplementary microscale Star Destroyers - they're so cute!

I've always loved the shape of this flagship and I think you did a great job reproducing it in real bricks!

That's beautiful! The greebling is perfect and the part edges work well to represent paneling on the smooth sections.

This is beautiful - especially the smooth lines.
