[QUOTE]Originally posted by aridas: [QB] [b]Masao[/b] posted: [QUOTE]"I'm not sure how you would end up with a square rear like in your revision."[/QUOTE]It's hard to explain in words, but it would be even harder for me to try to figure out how to show you in Cinema 4D, due to my lack of experience with my chosen CGI software. So words will have to suffice. The deflector housing is circular in cross section at the front, just behind the dish. It would gradually become rectangular in cross section until it is fully rectangular with a width that matches the width of the dorsal. At that point it smoothly tapers into the dorsal, just ahead of the flush vents. So, if you could extract the deflector housing from the ship and look at it in isolation, it would be circular at one end, and at the other be rectangular, with the rectangle being the height of the original circle, but the width of the dorsal. I'm assuming that the deflector housing is smaller in diameter than the maximum width of the dorsal. If it is larger, then the cicle at one end will have to taper to a square that is the width of the dorsal. Now I know what it means when they say that a picture is worth a thousand words. I could have sketched it and scanned the sketch and posted the thing in the time it took to describe it. If you don't understand my convoluted explanation, I will try to do just that. [/QB][/QUOTE]
