Here is a brief synopsis of my development of my new Star Destroyer model.  It's nearly done.  When I'm happy with it, I'll post in the gallery.

The beginning.
The starting point for this model was made in Raydream a LONG time ago. As is obvious, Star Wars models commonly have an insane amount of surface detailing. Such amount of detailing is dificult to model especially in Raydream given the limited power of the software and the computers that I was using then.
The original model was designed to be rendered from a distance with large details. The main thrust of the model was to have excellent proportions so that it would be very recognizeable and functional.
The Raydream model was able to provide that. It has all the major components with rough surface details and the scaling is quite good.
