Lore: The DBY-827 Turbolaser Turret was manufactured by Taim & Bak and was used by the Grand Army of the Republic on their Venator-class Star Destroyers during the Clone wars. These turrets were used for ship-to-ship combat and planetary bombardments, and featured fast rotation speeds, powerful sensor arrays and large power capacitors to efficiently track and eliminate fast, small interceptors and capital ships alike.
I created this turret after I downloaded SkylordLuke's Venator, and realised that it did not have any turrets docked to it. I felt that the Venator wasn't really complete without these turrets, and so, grabbing an image or two off the internet, I decided to get to work fixing this problem.
Due to the size and aesthetic limitations, this turret is mostly for show outside of a weak AMS system. However, I have kept as true to the source material as possible whilst also staying to scale with SkylordLuke's Resolution Star Destroyer on which I built and photographed the turret on - all credit for the Venator itself goes to him. As such, this turret is designed for this particular ship, however should still fill the need for any star-wars-esque capital ship which isn't bothered by underpowered turrets.
Features:
- cannon/cannon setup with 28 cannons
- Length: 14; Width: 9; Height: 6
- Fully self-powered
- full turret rotation
- Green cannon bolts (possibly should be blue)
- Faction and AI module
- NO camera - can't be manually aimed from inside turret
Hope you like it and let me know what you think
