Holy Crap! You put the TARDIS Time Rotor into the island. Nice!

TIN_MAN · May 25 2009, 08:31 PM

Great work! Send this to J.J. and tell him this is more like we wanna see next time!

BorgMan · May 25 2009, 08:56 PM

Ptrope, what are the orange tubings behind the rastering? Is that the actual core? Like in "this is the part that can be shot out when need be"?

USS Intrepid · May 25 2009, 09:29 PM

Love that engineering section Ptrope! Awesome work!

Well, I don't know about being 'shot out,' but that section behind the big screen has always been there from the beginning:

(Screen cap from "Court Martial" - s.1)

OK, gotta say it. You know that pic supports the use of cement floors for engineering in the Trek XI?

Ptrope · May 26 2009, 01:48 AM

The screen cap? Yeah, possibly. But what kind of floors do we expect a starship to have? Metal? Once it's painted, one material looks pretty much like another; I wouldn't be at all surprised to see the floors made of some sort of laminate or composite, or even poured, whether that would be concrete, plascrete, or some other synthetic material, the same way most modern buildings are constructed; we never saw floor panels that would allow access to the ship's infrastructure, but it's just as likely that they weren't there, with access being gained through the ceiling, instead, again as with modern building techniques. I didn't have a problem with the idea of concrete floors in the new film, frankly, only with them having giant fermentation vats bolted to them

Wow. The engine room is looking fab.

What is that guy on catwalk up to? Naked jumping jacks?

Ziz · May 26 2009, 02:34 AM

Looks like the maid got really serious with the floor wax.

Ptrope · May 26 2009, 02:39 AM

Well, yeah - it was Future ...

Cary L. Brown · May 26 2009, 03:16 AM

One thing that REALLY needs fixing on that Poser-Engineering set is the angle of the "rows of tubes." They're far too close to vertical (and the top section is way too wide). The rest of the set looks pretty good, but that part just jars the heck out of me.

Ptrope · May 26 2009, 06:21 AM

I'll probably do something to 'accurize' the tubes (I've been referring to them as the "plasma manifolds," which makes as much sense as anything, to me at least

). They probably wouldn't show onscreen for this project, but since the set is also going to be a downloadable freebie, which anyone else could use (with the kind permission of alt1701, of course), it would be good to make sure that the parts that remain are as close to the originals as possible.

Inspired by Redfern's post above, I've started 'upgrading' alt1701's already-excellent engineering set

Oh HEY now... this is beyond cool.

A fourth season of Star Trek with more money for the episode budget... sigh.

"These floors are so shiny!"

"It's a floor wax AND a dessert topping!"
