1/ Introduction:
Hello,
I plan to recreate sets of the death star and i start with the detention block in Star Wars ANH. I want to make them the most accurate as possible.
For the moment, i am making the plan with the blue print / images.
I am also referencing and collecting all the components as the cameras etc
Would be great to recreate those famous place of the death star.
My profession, I do project managmenent (Building).
My goal is recreate sets of the death star in 2D / 3D and next build it.
- Detention Block
- Control Room
- Reunion Room
- corridor
etc

2/ Modelisation 3D
I first used the blueprints. They are false in some details but give a an idea of the area and help for the begging of the drawing.
For the modelisation, I use SketchUp. When I will be happy with result, I will pass it on autocad for the 2D . And next in 3DSmax for the 3D
