    I am modeling a Corellian corvette (blockade runner) in 3D, and I desperately need some photo reference. I downloaded a model from SciFi3D to look at, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to read the format, so I'm making a request.

    The part I need is really hard to see, and none of the images on Google show it very well.

    I need to see how the middle set of engines are connected to the rest of the hull.

    You know how a Corellian corvette's engines look or you wouldn't be here, I'm sure. Four on top, four on the bottom, and three in between. It's those three in between I'm having a hard time with.

    Been through my DVDs taking screenies many times and it's really never visible. All the blue prints I've found don't bother showing a cut-away view of them. I barely even know what the secondary housing (the square part that the round exhaust part attaches to) looks like. Granted, this could make it easier to model, since if it's so hard to see in the movies then probably nobody will notice in my fan film, but still...

    So, any help would be appreciated. Thanks. :)

    Legos ;)

    That's all I've got for now. I did an AltaVista image search, nothing to different.

    Yeah, see, even in that picture, the bit I'm loking for is pretty well concealed.

    Fortunately, I took the model I DL'ed home (my internet access is a wireless card on my laptop; don't have it on my desktop machine at home, where I do my art) and it does work, so that's cool. The piece I need to model is fairly simple, actually, but I couldn't be sure until I saw it. But thanks. :)

    Would a picture of the Action Fleet toy help?
