20230104 Razor Crest Lighting: Navigation Lights

RED NAVIGATION LIGHTS

One thing I did not realise until very much later is that the Razor Crest does have a set of red Navigation lights. There are no other Star Wars ships that I can think of which has these as standard.

THE EXACT LOCATION

I started to re-watch the Series and boy, there went my few evenings. It is quite tempting to just sit there and enjoy the Story but I have a mission. The first Season proves the existence of the lights and its rough location. In most scenes, the only reference were front and side views. So, you kinda need to wing it and for me doing that on the model is risky since I botch things up more than I create them. So for the bottom, it is at the ‘hatch’.

SEASON 2 EPISODE 2 – THE PASSENGER

So in Chapter 10, while escaping from the X-Wings, we get a much more detailed shots of the Razor Crest and more importantly, the top-side where the top navigation lights are located.

SEASON 2 EPISODE 4 – The Siege

During the fight with the three TIE fighters, these shots are the clearest to spot for the top navigation lights.
