    Donny's TOS Enterprise Interiors

    Re: Donny's TOS Enterprise Interiors Darn, I gave it a wide berth because I don't have the time right now. Looks like I have to make and take the time, now. :klingon: This subtle addition of scratches and the like is fascinating. While we may not notice that on a conscious level, our...

    which issue of Starlog is it?

    Thank you! I was under the impression, then, that the Enterprise-A would have transwarp capability, so I felt that the nacelles should also visually reflect that. Mostly TOS set reproductions (my TOS cabin should come in handy for the current "toilet within cabin or not" discussion in the...

    Actual Size of Ships in Star Trek

    And - to my relief - he also lifts up the mattress (below the bed is probably another good space to store belongings) but he doesn’t check the area behind “The Corbomite Maneuver” wardrobe door (probably sound-proof, so he concludes the object can’t be in there?!). But I don’t like the...

    "Conspiracy" vs. "The Neutral Zone"

    ^^ This. I don't think it's a great episode but it has subtle qualities of a cliffhanger. Bob

    Isn't it time we realize Rick Berman was the genius of the ST we love

    Re: Isn't it time we realize Rick Berman was the genius of the ST we l I believe you are forgetting the contributions of Michael Piller. On behalf of Rick Berman I think it's fair to say that he (and Michael Piller) were very keen on keeping Star Trek in a way they felt Gene Roddenberry would...

    Actual Size of Ships in Star Trek

    Fair enough. Unfortunately I'm not at all familiar about Japanese habits but IIRC they do not mind sharing a bathtub (that would be my shower analogy) but are concerned when it comes to other "business" and prefer that to be as private as possible. Maybe a Japanese Trek BBS member could shed...

    which issue of Starlog is it?

    :rofl: I assume full responsibility! This is my drawing I sent around back in those days (Richard Arnold didn't like it) advocating / propagating that Paramount Pictures should do something with the Enterprise-A (seen in ST IV-TVH) to create a more believable impression that this is no longer...

    Actual Size of Ships in Star Trek

    Like the couple in summer shorts passing Pike on the way to his cabin in "The Cage" or some crew members in the background of the "briefing" Lounge in WNMHGB, I agree. But I think that coming from a workout in the gym, a medical screening or the (communal) showers is still somewhat different...

    Season SEVEN OFFICIAL TNG Blu-Ray Discussion Thread

    It only happened to one of my DVDs when I was in a haste and didn't pay attention. But I agree, there is a certain risk involved, but you could probably use thin CD trays or the like instead as an alternative. I just think it's the box itself which is a truly unique and appropriate storage and...

    Actual Size of Ships in Star Trek

    But already in "The City on the Edge of Forever" the saucer hull layout of 11 decks was hinted, IMHO, and in accordance with the (text) guidelines published in "The Making of Star Trek", which would be somewhat incompatible with Matt Jefferies' cutaway: "In a strange, wild frenzy, he has fled...

    Kirk's Television Enterprise Deck Plans WIP

    Ahem...yes (this is the true reason, I screwed up). On the other hand I wanted to see if anybody was paying attention (this would be the "official" explanation :lol:). Thanks Mytran! Bob

    Donny's TOS Enterprise Interiors

    Re: Donny's TOS Enterprise Interiors Just a quick thought I had last night, Donny. With all the props you have recreated in 3D thus far, you could theoretically also feature a virtual Star Trek prop archive. Keep up your great work! Bob

    Kirk's Television Enterprise Deck Plans WIP

    Just a quick heads-up for anybody interested in discussing the interiors and in particular the cabin design, starting at post # 74 in this BBS thread. I also just realized, I forgot to feature Ensign Chekov's Deck 5 cabin on the corresponding deck plan draft. According to "The Ultimate...

    Actual Size of Ships in Star Trek

    You could use the gym, the ship’s theater, the holodeck room, the rec rooms, lounges and other public areas to do that. The upper level of the hangar deck (i.e flight deck) is a possibility, too, but I’d rather think the colonists would have been accommodated with easy access to toilets and food...

    Actual Size of Ships in Star Trek

    Thanks for refreshing my memory! But now that you mentioned the idea of the diplomatic cabin with a high possibility or probability of an adjacent bathroom (for Elaan to hide in) I do think Uhura’s cabin is, indeed, special and rather unique. This second shelf compartment left of the drawer /...

    Season SEVEN OFFICIAL TNG Blu-Ray Discussion Thread

    ^^ :techman: I did notice some frustration over at Trekcore regarding the complete seasons card box packaging. Here is a suggestion: Get yourself the original field equipment style (apparently inspired by these components in the side corridor of the TNG transporter room) DVD boxes from the...

    Actual Size of Ships in Star Trek

    We also get a glimpse of the (still) opened walk-in closet (with a black cube Janice used as a step-up aid?) when Kirk leaves his cabin in the final episode. But what about the roatating cylindrical closet? IIRC, we’ve only seen two thirds of three thirds, i.e. the closed wall and the part...

    Star Trek and Volkswagen...

    I think the original Pontiac TransSport commercials (with Patrick Stewart's voice) made more sense, I mean that van did look like it could qualify as a ST shuttlecraft, and I saw one during the Berlin premiere of ST VI-TUC where the owners had added ST markings in such a professional manner that...

    Donny's TOS Enterprise Interiors

    Re: Donny's TOS Enterprise Interiors You are a real haystack-needle finder! :techman: Unless I'm mistaken, it's the same kind of GNDN pad that also showed up in TNG like the one in Picard's battle bridge ready room: http://tng.trekcore.com/hd/albums/1x01/farpoint_hd_411.jpg (Wow, just...

    Actual Size of Ships in Star Trek

    Thanks Mytran for having saved documents like that. It just shows that for treknological materials on the internet, a "better save, than sorry" attitude is recommendable. ;) :techman: What makes the official description in TMoST somewhat difficult, is that we do not know whether the original...
