As a fellow Star Wars fan, I can appreciate the idea -- my friends and I stood in line to see the original in 1977 at least 13 times that first summer (back when going to a theater was the only option).
*for my tank I lean more towards natural ocean-looking but I applaud your approach

Here's an old picture of my urchin carrying some "Yoda ears" that my kids bought me:
*you could go for a Darth Vader helmet or something to fit your motif

My cousin desperately wanted to see this movie when it came out. I was like eh.
Well, we went and I have been hooked since.
Love that scape. GSP would look pretty cool on it too.

I saw the first movie (a new hope) in 1977 in the theater. First movie I ever saw. I was 6.

My favorite vessel is the Millennium Falcon, closely followed by the Hammerhead Corvette from Rouge One.

Your tribute is worthy. Grow some stuff on it...
Same.
The theater was in the mall.

This is brilliant, can’t wait to see this build. I love theme tanks. Especially Star Wars!

Don’t forgot to add a Sarlacc pit . Lol

Hey guys
As a Star Wars Nerd I always wanted a Star Wars tank even tried to made a Hoth inspired tank back in the day. For this Nuvo 14 I reached out to Chandler Rocks to build a crashed star destroyer scape. It soon turned into much much more
Enjoy the pics

Great base and was pretty happy but just did not give me the feel I wanted so I went down a rabbit hole.

Stopped here thinking I was happy with the mods. Showed some friends and then dove headfirst into ship building

Once the shape was set started adding damage and details. I know eventually it will be covered but I was on a roll, almost don’t wanna put it in a salt water tank anymore haha. Now here it is as of today
