I know this is going to crop up sooner or later, knowing the adoration people have for the Ultimate Battle Station, so feel free to post any/all pics of the Death Star, DS2, or the EU varients (Darksaber, Prototype, etc) here.

A couple to start off:

Image
DS1

Image
DS2, had it been completed.

Wow. This is very well done. Maybe this could be a scene from Star-Crossed, since I don't see the Falcon anywhere.

That hand drawn one kicks ass, looks so much better than the "whitishness" of the normal DS.

Yeah it is, but I think It would look better with Endor as the background.

Yeah, not too mention the color variations are different. I got a website that I know about that has pics of 2b Death Stars over Coruscant, I'll find them.

You'll notice that the Destroyers are quite comfortable with the nebulae Trek ships fear. :twisted:

Heh. I was referring to the fact that nebulae are overused by inexperienced 3D modelers who just want their renderings to look "kewl."

Well, think about it: it's not canon, it's never going to be, and aren't fan-made pictures done for the very reason of being "kewl"?

I'd think that most people would get sick of seeing generic nebula after generic nebula...

I like the way they add a bit of background, but to each his own.
