Savmagoett, what dimensions did you calculate for the Tydirium? Did you use the ILM version…

…Or the stumpy set version?

<span>Well I didn’t wanted to get onto that in my Tydirium analysis in the first place because the tread is more about the ISD size actually</span> <span>(a least for the moment)</span><span>, but</span> there is indeed shape discrepancy between the set and the model.

Actually I used the shape of the ILM model because I find it more beautiful, I simply rotated the cockpit for the landed version to make it look like the set version (I played around the idea of a droop-nose Concorde like cockpit but in the wrong direction! :p , that could be another fixing matter to add to the ESB/ROTJ whishlist)

Plus i don’t find it really relevant in the size matter. It’s a bit like the differences between ANH ISD and ESB/ROTJ ISDs, there are contradictions between the FXs but it is still the same ship, and because the two shapes aren’t <span style=“text-decoration: underline;”>that</span> different, I think we can still size up the Tydirium being <span style=“text-decoration: underline;”>roughly</span> 20m long, can’t we?
