I agree totally with Charles on this. I've seen pictures of the Star Destroyer on set for filming. You can just see a portion of the starboard side... no detailing! When Star Wars was being filmed, they just built what they needed. They didn't have the budget or time to waist on a model that was not going to be used much after the opening scene, and only called for shots from the bottom and port sides.
Anyway, there were details on that model that are no longer there, and weren't for ESB. We want to know what one particular part was on the face of the bridge. It was suggested by Julien on another thread to try parts of the Akagi deck. So I did. I don't believe it is exactly what was used, but I like how it looks if nothing else turns up. Oh, and don't worry, it is not glued on (yet). What do you think?
