[QUOTE]Originally posted by Zor Prime: [QB] I don't think engineering is supposed to be right at the top of the secondary hull, it's at least a couple decks down I would think. Take a look at the 1701 cutaway poster, they seem to have placed it at a proper "height" within the hull. So, maybe the frame members (if indeed that's what those braces looking things are in the photo), are not all the same, the bottom of each one is at even height, but the tops follow the hull slope. The frame members go down a couple decks before they reach the top of engineering. Maybe I'll model it in 3d and see how realistic it looks. Also, seeing that photo makes me think that the designers of the set probably imagined it being in the secondary hull, so curved the braces, but didn't think to include the detail of it following the hull slope. Look at the problem of the turbolist on the bridge. On the exterior model, it's at centreline, but on the set, it's offset (because it works better on film), but when you put the 2 together, you have to offset the bridge 36 degrees like Franz Joseph did to make the 2 things work. Let me do a bit of modeling and send you a pic and see what you think. [/QB][/QUOTE]
