I hate that I just sat and did a spot the difference on these images. I feel like I am propping up a stereotype.
Bottom ship doesn’t have the same body profile on the bottom of the main body (engineering?)
The three things I spotted were hangar bay has a fin type thing above it, there’s an extra bit on the rear of the “neck” from saucer to engineering hill and the position and rake of the pylons is shorter on the Nemesis version which brings the nacelles forward a touch and opens up the rear of the engineering hill a bit.
The booty on the “Nemesis” era E:
“Fixed” the Nemesis version to include Picard’s addition to the refit.
I love the D, it’s my favourite starship of all time.
But my god, the E looks beautiful!!
Lol now do Imperial I vs Imperial II star destroyers.
The difference is actually a bit more noticeable, as the Imperial II communications tower definitely had a different design from the Imperial I tractor beam array (on top of the bridge). The other differences between both are probably not even visible. Victory I and Victory II on the other hand, I’m not sure about the visual differences.
Doesn’t the victory 1 have the giant “wings” in an x shape in the side and the victory 2 doesn’t?
Both versions have the atmospheric maneuvering surfaces.
Can they really open up outside of fanart? In all official artworks I’ve seen they look pretty connected and rigid.
Wasn’t there something about a missing hallway inside the ship in one of the films?
The big difference in the models are the landing gears. In A New Hope there are only three. After that, there are five.
I don’t know about the missing hallway, but now I’m curious.
