I must admit I am a bit confused . . . .
I think I know what you mean . . . . on the schematic you posted, it is labeled
"Crossover Bridge/Cargo Transfer/Turbolift Corridor" . . .
What about this section . . . you think I missed it? It's the single largest part of the station don't worry . . . it's covered.

My self, I may do one render . . . and walk away, at best I may have to wait until LW goes 64Bit for Mac. But I feel 64Bit PC is the only way one will be able to render this thing.

It will be a nightmare to convert it for 3DS Max, but I´ll try it, for sure!

I think Colombista is referring to the main piers, which are much larger than the piers which attach at the points of the weapons sails. However I think that foreshortening and perspective is distorting it: GP hasn't actually modelled the main piers yet. There is a 120 degree difference between each connecting pier, so that means that the alternate piers are missing so far!

All in good time I am sure. Good luck on this GP, looks splendid, and I think I could park my station inside yours hahaha

Look at the images again . . . then look at them some more. . .
It's all good . . . I won't say it's 100% accurate, I could never say that but you have your sections mixed up a bit. look at it again and repost.

But seriously people who build popular models should throw a disclaimer in their first post of their thread that covers whether they are going for a "copy" or adaption of the design. To keep the fans at bay.
