I just want to say how amazing I think your work on this project is!

I especially like the huge plasma screen on the side of the SRV!

Brilliant work, Michael! Color work is inspiring and out of the box, as are your geometric shapes.It's all very believable as the time period it's supposed to be, and pushes the envelope for colored schematics using Illustrator. Can you tell I can't gush enough over this?

MichaelS · December 11 2005, 09:59 AM

Thanks! I'm tempted to get back to work ...

gwud · December 11 2005, 02:05 PM

You really, really should!! I used to look forward to seeing the improvements etc, but now I just miss it!

Get to it, my man!

MichaelS · January 3 2006, 12:37 AM

There's been an update of sorts. Here, to be exact. Take a look!

Kazeite · January 3 2006, 12:53 AM

Looks... adequate, considering place-holderness of the shapes

One question about the turbolift, tho': is it me, or does it have four doors?

MichaelS · January 3 2006, 11:09 AM

It's just you.

The cabin is seen from the front, those are the only two doors the lift has.

Kazeite · January 3 2006, 02:27 PM

*blinks* Two doors? Did I miss something? I was under impression that turbolifts have only one pair of doors.

MichaelS · January 3 2006, 10:03 PM

No, you didn't miss anything. I misspoke - I meant the one pair of doors you can see. A pair of doors - two doors. Easy to confuse.

Thanks!

Here's an update: the side view of the SRV.

Cool. Looks like those underwater sleds divers use.

MichaelS · January 20 2006, 10:01 PM

I changed a few things. For the better, I hope.

MichaelS · January 22 2006, 10:22 PM

I'm on a roll, it seems. Recently I felt compelled to continue my work on okudagrams, and I finished two of them, using my own colour scheme. Just imagine them on the Stargazer's Ops and Conn consoles - which shouldn't be that difficult, since we never saw the graphics that were there.

USS Mariner · January 22 2006, 10:48 PM

I'd make the borders white, or very light teal. Otherwise it's great.

I see you're basing yours off the helm/nav consoles from the Enterprise-B. Since the Stargazer had a helm console similar to the refit Enterprise, you might want to look to Star Trek V for guidance. It's hard to get good screencaps of the console, though, because they had huge problems with reflective surfaces in that movie.

MichaelS · January 23 2006, 04:11 PM

Yeah, I know ...

However, I'll eventually do other bridge modules as well, so I can use those consoles there.
