Nice build Robiwon... seeing that you have started to drill the light floods, how thick is the plastic around the hangar?
I'm still awaiting for my kit to arrive, but plan to deepen the hangar a bit on my build.
Being a bit of a novice in SDs, I was wondering how much work it would require to mod a Zvezda SD into an ok ESB Avenger? I really like the look of its deck and the way the shield gens rest on the slanted deck roof, and am not big fan of the platformed ones from the kit.
Quick lighting test of the trench.
Thanks for your insight Dobber.The Zvezda kit is already a ESB Avenger kit...more or less. [...]

Thanks for your insight Dobber.
Guess I have been focusing on the "less" part - ie those shield gens/sensor geodes platforms
I have since been comparing the conning tower's face with shots of the ESB 8footer and I believe it could with a bit of detail work, make a convincing Avenger.
Cool. I may pick one of those up. Not sure yet. I see the landing gear boxes, does it have any other surface detail? Its hard to tell.
Attached Thumbnail is no joke there. Yes it's only about a half in long. The engine grills and cut outs are there, but that's it...no sense in putting piping detail at this scale...This thing is tiny....like the size of the nail on my index finger small. Not much detail on it, but enough.
I think with a little white paint, and a light wash enough detail will come out.
