Well, after several hours last night and today - I finished the shelf thingy sticking out of the port side wedding cake, complete with toilet thing below.

And this is why it's taking me so long to greeblie this thing up. Sometimes I curse the gift of all those high res ILM model shots. But then, when I get this monster done - I can be proud and know that for the scale it is - it's the closest thing I'm going to have to the ILM model under 3 feet long.
And the, God willing, Bandai will announce their Perfect Grade Star Destroyer.

And that's when I shoot myself in the head after my wife divorces me for spending way more than I should and being a frustrated old coot because I have to spend hundreds of man-hours on 'a stupid piece of plastic'.
Given the ridiculous levels of detail I have discovered while doing this, I am not even sure Bandai could pull it off.
You’ve done a great job with the kit. The attention to detail is wonderful. In my view, when looking at your pictures, the layering of the additional details draws my eyes into the model. The closer I look at it the more detail I see. It adds a lot of interest to the model. This is a challenging subject when trying to scale down the 8ft Avenger to the 1/2700 scale of the kit. Compromises have to be made, but I don’t see that as a disadvantage. Even though you’ve got a lot of reference material to go by, you’re adding your own personal touch. I’ve been holding out for a kit from Bandai, but this really is a decent kit for the money. Once I finally put together my hobby room I’ll probably start with this kit. I’ve enjoyed watching your progress.
Thank you sir! I continue to be stuck in what I call 'greeblie hell' - and of course having hundreds and hundreds of high-resolution pics of every square inch of the 8 foot ILM model just makes that hell seemingly an eternity. But I am making slow progress. Here's a few more pics of the progress:
