This is a large kit with an adequate number of parts to make it highly detailed with the added benefit of painting only one tone light grey with no paint masking and decal application. We are sure companies like Tirydium Modelswill be producing a lighting kit for this model int he near future. The Star Destroyer when built and painted out of the box will just be a light grey finished geometrical 3-D object that will potentially look flat and featureless.Ĭonsidering most of the scenes of an operational Star Destroyer occur in space, it will be the lighting that will really improve the character of the model. There is scope for lighting using either LEDs or optical fibre for there is plenty of room within the model to install such items, you could even employ battery-operated Christmas lights as well the cool or warm white ones should be suitable. Things to consider when finishing this model: There is plenty of photos of the original Star Destroyer on the net to refer for alterations or add detail if one is so inclined. If one wishes to scrutinize every square millimetre of the surface of the model, one can pause every frame of the movie sequence of the Star Destroyer to examine the detail from stem to stern.
So how accurate is it? Well, it is a replica model of a model spacecraft and the overall shape looks right, with key items like the docking port, thruster cones, bridge are all in the right location.
