[MOD] 9500 Sith Fury

Hey guys!  I posted this a week or two ago over at the Star Wars Lego subreddit, and figured I'd post it here for my first posted topic!  I decided to modify my Sith Fury, and I found @billyamy's post before photobucket held it for ransom and stole a bunch from it took inspiration from it.  Let me know what you think, criticism is always welcome!  I'm pretty freshly out of my dark ages, so there are a lot of parts and building techniques that are still new to me.  Not seen is a bunch of structural changes I did to the interior, filling holes and generally reinforcing the model. The pictures aren't amazing, but I hope they're okay!

The first mod I did was to fill in the interior of the wings with a plate and some light greebles.  Seeing inside of the wings really bugged me in the stock model, I wish Lego had done something to fill it in.  Next was to replace the flick-fire missiles with black telescope parts on a SNOT bracket, with a TIE wing circle tile for detail.  I don't really like flick-fires, and I don't need the play feature, so out they go.  I also switched the old cockpit with one of the new TIE cockpits.  Not exactly canon, but I like it better!  I also changed the top, but there'll be more photos of it later.

Here's a view of the ship from the front. You can see the (slightly out of focus) black slopes covering trans-red plates on the tips of the wings, which I added for fun, but later found out that the in-universe ship has something similar!  

Here's that top view I was talking about.  I'm not super thrilled about the tiles and slopes around the cockpit, but it's what I settled on.  Ideas are appreciated!  You can also see that I've replaced the click hinge portions over the cockpit and troop area, I don't really need to get into those areas and I like them better covered with plates and greebling.   The former troop area is now a reactor area, so I added vents and an engine block above that area.  However, I feel like there's too much black.

Next is a cockpit interior shot!  I've added some joysticks and some printed panels, and you can see at the top is a mudguard piece.  I copied this from @Bricks Feeder's amazing TIE Advanced Prototype post, where he used it right on top of his TIE windshield.  I have some issues with the offset of my windshield here, since I can't make it sit in deep enough...  If you guys have ideas on how to fix this, I'm all ears.  Anyway, the mudguard lets it sit slightly more evenly on the part where it touches the ship.

Next is the back, where I took a lot of direction from @billyamy again.  I realize it doesn't look nearly as nice as theirs, nor as nice with the wings folded out, but it lets in more light.  I added octagon modified plates with clip plates around the engines to give more detail to the nacelles, and some slopes, vents, and assorted greebles around the engines as well.

Here's a not-so-great shot of the technic mechanism that @billyamy used in their post to open up the back of the ship.  I think it's brilliant and blends in much better with the ship

Instead of troops, you get this!  It's a smashed-together engine/reactor thing.  I looked around and didn't find many ideas, so I cobbled it together.  What dyou guys think?  It's a mess of trans red studs, some curved slopes, some vent pieces, and some gumption.

That's it for my first topic!  I hope you guys like it, let me know if there are more photos that you want.
