Thanks you Haui! 
Some times is very difficult and frustating find a piece that fits with the original piece.
With this particular piece of the roof, I was looking a long time for something that would work. In the end, a simple button served me. It is not the same as the original of course, but I try to make it as similar as possible with the things I have or I can find.

Thanks You Mindmax!
Well, I made a stop building the ships. I wanted to paint after so much time just building. I have started by the tower. As this model is very large, painting it all in one grey tone did not excite me, so I chose to paint certain plates of a different shade of gray, and even some with a beige tone.
On top of the beige I applied light gray filters to integrate it into the set. Then I have worked with oils in black, browns, and different gray colors to add richness of colors, volume and dirt.
A pity that the light bulbs cover many of the transitions of these colors in the pics, the colors are much richer and stand out more in live.
I still have to paint the entire roof and the cannons. I also have to touch up the black lines around all the pieces

I love what you've done with the place...
Looks like what ILM "would have done" if they weren't so rushed and behind schedule the whole time.
Really nice, aesthetically true interpretation of a key element of the Death Star.
