Astral Oath Interior WIP 03

I decided to get away from the main hold a little bit and try to tackle the biggest and most annoying size discrepancy in the entirety of the YT-1300.  There is ZERO chance that the gun well, as depicted on screen, would fit inside the Falcon or any other YT-1300. It's just not that tall. I am however not joining the interior and the exterior at all, so i can fudge it a bit. 

I started off by shrinking the tunnel between the ventral and dorsal guns. I was going to shrink the gun pits a bit but I didn't want to shrink the chairs.  I'm also re-designing the gun area a little bit. There will be some consoles mounted there, but this would have been a far less piecemeal installation than on the Falcon. I've got the initial padding in the corridor as well as the lights. I need to carve into it and put the corridor access in, but that's coming after I have everything else modeled.

The guns are mostly placeholders that I ripped from the exterior model. They're getting rebuilt so they're a little less not me but keeping the same relative shape. I also need to have the cannons alternate firing sequences and as built, these cannons can't do that. 

So after about 4 hours last night trying to figure out how in the hell I was going to do this, I ripped the band aid off and got to work and here we are. Based partly off the Hayne's manual and what we saw of this part of the Falcon in the films, this is definitely going to end up being it's own beast and fit with the rest of the Astral Oath.  

I'm itching to get this done because I've been sketching up the two cabin's and extended beds and want to get those built soon too.
