Trying more scale tricks...

I think this one has succeeded in doing SOMETHING... it's "absolute scale" is no longer as clear. That's a good first step. If you're not absolutely sure how big it is, maybe I can convince you of a new scale...

Looks better with this angle... What about landing on this ship and taking photo of another at farther point.

really cool model Mike... maybe two tiny astronauts would give a sense of scale.. I believe it is hard to have a sense of scale without anything well known near by... because nobody has ever seen a monster vaissel like this one... this is maybe why...maybe.. in fact the same way "arch" people do... when they "comp" cardboards humans in their renders to give a sense of scale...

Well that first angle is the hero shot from one of the films, and I thought I'd start there... I'll move the camera around a bit and see what else shows up...

The movies used lots of devices to indicate scale.

Sound
flocks of TIE fighters
cuts to extreme wide angle shots

also try cropping the image to a cinescope aspect ratio at least 2.35/1

A wider angle would help a lot I think, the ship looks too compressed now. I would have killed myself after modelling only 10% of this....so much detail and it's not repetitive either.

This is one of those cases where a wide angle actually works against it; makes it look like a toy... ok, I admit I tried it :P

Not super wide angle, but what focal length is it set at now? Because it looks a bit as if you were looking through a telescope, and since there's nothing around it to imply scale, it could really be any size. Getting closer to it would help I think so a wider angle is needed.
