In regards to Vaderios' mock-up on the right, taking into account ImpFighter's preference for seeing the tower (which I can see too, so the Executor doesn't look like a flying arrow) the other thing that can be done is slim down the brighter underbelly area of the Executor to match the angle and perspective of the surrounding SDs.

I would love to see the model they used for this shot, much less to see someone do a drawing or mock-up of how the Executor would look from a front "dead-on" angle.

Something like this?



you may not be able to tell too well from how small the shot is, but here is a perspective image:



there are a lot of odd things going on here:
(1) the tower alignment doesn't match the hull alignment
(2) even the area underneath the Executor is wierd; if you look at the unmolested picture, the extension underneath is not symmetrical on either side
(3) the back tip does not quite make a straight line to the nose - it's as if the area leading to the underbelly extension dips INTO the hull.

Who says all the ships fly at the same angle in space (major brain bug).


Also, the Executor is a different type of ship than the ISDs. Who says it needs to look the same in profile or whatever? The main point is to see how massive it is in relation to the other ships. They're using a physical model, so why would it be "wrong"?
