I would even advocate for more extreme damage such as a hole in one of the wings and/or burn damage. Really sell the idea that it’s been through a Death Star explosion!
Heh, maybe I could try a little more! A lot gets covered up by the haze, but also the thing has to be flyable. It’s a little improbable either way!
Edit: It just occurred to me it’s hard to see some of these details on the vimeo. I made the file downloable from the link, and if you click the “Original” file it should give you the prores.
