Ummm... actually, that is exactly what those round thruster drum like things are on the four corners. But, I will add in a few more thrusters on the bottom arranged on the sides to assist this *"flying brick"* when it needs to do rolls. Render above shows the front drums rotated -65 and the rear drums rotated 65. To redirect full thrust to the main engines I would simply roll the drums to a fully closed position. Keeping them smooth... hmmm... I model the final shape right away and keep an eye on my smoothing angle at all times. It's tedious, but you can control every single point and polygon without wasting too many polygons. Cheers! M
