Brilliant build! The architecture is undistinguishably Italian! That said, If I am allowed to nit-pick, that's not the correct design of the Italian flag.

Fair enough, I still think that with the right printing it could look pretty accurate but that's me.

What I mean is that the range trooper helmet mould is a way closer approximation of the hovertank trooper helmet than the shore trooper helmet mould is. There is a possibility that if LEGO ever decides to issue new hovertank troopers they would use the new range trooper helmet mould instead of the shore trooper helmet mould making the figure considerably different.

I can't believe the hovertank driver helmet is already outdated, army building has become impossible with these imperial figures

To be honest I would love to stick to the first version, I really like the idea that the cargo can be dropped off, it makes much more sense to me this way as a design. On the other hand I would like to make it accurate and the first version just doesn't allow for the interior seen in the movie.. It's a tough call, I'll have to think about it.. that said, I'm leaning towards the latter at the moment.

Oops sorry! Got it now thanks

I apologise maybe I have not made myself clear in my previous post, but the two images show completely different structures: The first one shows the that the cargo section (orange) is detachable and therefore separate from the interior of the ship, while the second image clearly show that the interior of the ship extends inside the cargo area meaning that the two images are incompatible... I was simply wondering which one of the two you were planning/have already followed with your model.

Loved the ship in the movie and can't wait to see your model complete! Actually I am also planning to give this a shot.. Out of curiosity are you basing yours off this version: or this version:
