What is it about Star Destroyers that makes them so cool? You see one and you just want to see it fuck things up.
>space is black
>nobody has though of using black paint as camouflage
It's like watching a huge Ship of the Line cruising down the water with 100 cannons per side
it's a mobile fort

It's well designed. Has a form that speaks of its function and the personality of those who use it.
Additionally it looks surprisingly real for a miniature movie prop.
Star destroyers are pretty underrated in terms of design and aesthetic tbqh

>space camouflage
You realize they fight using sensors and targeting computers and not directly visually, right?

No one is using their eyes to detect ships in space. Heat signatures are a dead giveaway in space where nothing radiates heat naturally other than stars and planets. Also light from a star would light up even a pitch black object like a Christmas tree.

Then why do all the spaceships have windows?
CHECKMATE ATHEIST.

It's a scifi design based on ships skyscrapers and industrial equipment, whereas most of what's done today is scifi designs based on scifi designs based on scifi designs.
I got to have dinner with one of the guys who designed the star destroyer once. He talked a lot about how the visual design for these and the borg cubes and some other shit relies on having a lot of squareish ins and outs to look imposing but industrial, it radiates "power." I don't remember the term he used for it unfortunately, the boxy in and out complex roughness of the surface.

Because there is no stealth in space.

That was it, thanks. It's been ages. He was a really interesting dude and knew how to speak to kids very well, that dinner went a long way towards getting me into film.
Time for proto-star destroyer.

A Star Wars animated series in this style would be perfect

2005 Clone Wars was already the perfect animated star wars.
triangles are considered the most dangerous of all the shapes
>>64439040
That's true in flatland at least.

Miniatures are so fucking cool
I love the little details, like that ladder in the third picture
Best effect

that's not a ladder. obviously it would be far too large for any person. it's some kind of sensor array.
