Gone through several sites and youtube EP VI clips, and there is no doubt...

The Liberty is missing two engine exhausts. which is quite evident, as there are two vacant holes at the rear wingroots.

Don't know how they missed that one

Then you need to go and read harder, because there is definitely a reason for it......

(Its Mostly because the amount of engines has been in dispute over a few differnet set of publications, and depending on which model they had access to, and which description, it may be contentious... But no, I readily agree...)

Someone better repair that. Not exhausting your engine seems ... Problematic.

Look Honestly, as long as you Exhaust your Engine Techs on the Liberty, I'll be bloody happy enough....

Looking on the model, on either side of the engines are two more structures that look like engines, but are not painted as such. These are also on the assemblage line indicating the ship being a two part assembly. This might be why they aren't painted; spraying the engine-glow blue at that spot might lead to unintended areas being hit as well.

Edit: Arg, can't post pictures on mobile!

That seems logical.

I've recently noticed that seems that the studio Liberty actually has ten engines rather than the 9 (two unlit) on the Armada model:

In both images you can make out a small engine in the fantail, below the two largest engines.

I figure that the reason people (including the FFG Armada modellers) thought the Liberty had only 9 - was that SWTC's Curtis Saxton theorised that the "Wingless Liberty" model belly engine had been taken off, a fantail installed, and wings installed, to turn it into the Liberty model

- everyone else went with that assumption, and it was never realised that the fantail went over the engine and it was never taken off in the first place.

Mine has one of it's thrusters angled down but you don't see me complaining ABOUT HAVING ONE OF THE THRUSTERS ANGLED DOWN! FFG!!!! FIX NAO!

I only noticed when I was done painting it too so I don't wanna break it off and re-glue it now :-/
