After reading through your entire thread here I agree with you that Michael Ryan could have taken some extra time to detail it out some more but he is open to making improvements. He did try to make it different enough that he avoided legal issues. He was selling the prints in 1/3000 scale and I also upsized mine to twice that size. The part I felt needed the most improvement was that conning tower. I replaced the entire bridge with an alternate bridge design. He is frequently on Macross Fan Central on facebook but I subscribe to his Patreon as well. He just released that model recently so I am sure he would be open to making those changes. He also on his Patreon asks for inputs as he is designing each month as his goal is to release one model for download each month. I emailed you back about the destroids but not sure it got through. You are definitely making me want to acquire a resin 3d printer as mine can only go so small in detail.
