Behind schedule on this (modelling about 70% complete).
Decided to enhance finished meshes and take advantage of 512 vertice cap/mesh. Switching from tri to quad faces too.
Latest screenshot is near bottom of this thread. Re-working the Conning Tower Mesh . . .

Very nice one!
The engine could need a bit more work, but I guess you're working on them, right?

Good work.

Work you on New Textures for ISD and ISD 2?

Not the ISD Mark-I (the Devastator) in the interim. That's another project to improve on another year or two, or someone else can do it. There's plenty of traveling exhibit images on the internet of the "Devastator" model, and easier to redo then the current ESB/ROTJ Avenger ISD-II project.

Edit: LFL/Disney are updating the ISD Mark-I (the Devastator) for the upcoming Rogue One movie this December, and it looks fantastic.
Check out their Youtube video (part of the current S.W. celebration 2016 Europe tour in the U.K.) at S.W. main website.

Well, this is exciting. Any teasers for us, Bman? Anything we can guess at?

Still trying to wrap my head around that bit, been too long since I've been fiddling around with actual ingame stuff.

As for the ISD, I'm really exciteed to see how that turns out, looking really amazing!

Not much time lately, but here is a little progress on the back of the "Conning Tower" mesh that connects to the Bridge:
