Death Star (75159) - Starting on the Walls

With the floor of the 1st level done, we next started on the walls. With these starting to go up, you can definitely begin to see the spherical shape of the death star as well as get an idea of the scale and size of the set.

We also started filling in some of the background details in some of the scenes - ladders, weapons racks, etc.

 Here we can see the beginnings of the "swinging across the shaft" scene with the platforms that Luke and Leia swing across in order to escape from the pursuing stormtroopers. The stickers on the long vertical pieces are a nice touch as they do a decent job of recreating the lighting panels as seen in the movie.

 The top down view gives a sense of just how small the base is compared to the upper levels.
