RE: Scratchbuilt Star Destroyer 1/2222 scale - scratchy - 07-22-2011
After a nice break from the build, I finally got around to adding some detail to the second level from the top. I had to rebuild my "Chop-it", it's actually giving me a nicer cut than when I originally purchased it. I can now cut some really fine pieces of styrene.

awesome detailing on there. Glad to see you back at it.
RE: Scratchbuilt Star Destroyer 1/2222 scale - scratchy - 07-23-2011
Thanks dbhs! I think I needed a break from it, now my interest is recharged, a lot more work should be applied now.

I finally finished the top of the second level, here's some pics.

Wow, it's been three years since I posted on this thread, my apologies.
Some more work on the superstructure, this should be done soon,.... well, this section at least.

I revisited the main hanger crane and rebuilt the ends.

RE: Scratchbuilt Star Destroyer 1/2222 scale - JAWS - 03-18-2014
I was wondering what happened to this.
Just blows me away when I look at the detail you have achieved.
Its just mind boggolling!
Thanks for the update.

That's looking damn good. Amazing lot of work you've put into all to get it to where you are at with things. It'll look pretty spectacular with some primer splashed on let alone the final paint work and with the lights on. Keep at it!
RE: Scratchbuilt Star Destroyer 1/2222 scale - dbhs - 03-20-2014
Looks amazing. I'd love to see an overall shot.

I have a link to my Facebook page at the bottom left of this reply. All the pics you seek are there.
RE: Scratchbuilt Star Destroyer 1/2222 scale - JAWS - 03-20-2014
Very kool.
I almost forgot about some of the other works you've done.
That falcon refit is amazing also.

It's been awhile since my last post, sorry all.
I found a donor part for the engine section, it's a part from the MPC DV TIE Fighter. I made two and I'll cast four for the secondary engine structures.

I added four earth magnets to the superstructure and the top hull.

I wired in some LED sockets and I have them fitted to the secondary engines.

I also made the side structures and started detailing this area.

I built three vacuum form plattens and built a new cover with black ABS.

I replaced some .010" styrene with .010" brass, just so that this area is a little stronger.
