James Clyne's Concept art for Star Trek (2009)

Re: James Clyne - Star Trek Designer

Thank you; very nice. :)

But I only get two images with no home page link there.
 
Re: James Clyne - Star Trek Designer

Oh, ok. Thanks -- I guess he only did those two images? They are very cool.
 
Re: James Clyne - Star Trek Designer

There are a whole series of images including, Narada, Vulcan and the "Iowa bridge" and a corridor. I'm guessing that the Kelvin was originally called USS Iowa in the script?

Press the link in the bottom right of the picture labeled "next".

Sharr
 
Re: James Clyne - Star Trek Designer

Yeah, I did. The next page opens in a new window and doesn't have a "next" button. The first page will only get me to the second one and no further.

It looks like if you start at this index page (Projects) and click on "Star Trek (XI)", then you'll be able to keep clicking the "Next" button to see more images -- several different views of Narada among them. (22 images, total?)

Edit:

That's what it looks like to me. This is similar in a number of ways to the Kelvin bridge we saw on-screen, as well as the Kobayashi Maru simulator bridge. (Was there a name assigned to to the ship that simulator was supposed to represent?)

Wow! Those are beautiful. I like the way the red is emphasized on the Enterprise bridge; I think it would have been nice to see more red.

(Thanks, M'Sharak. I tried that link from the projects page before, too; and I don't know why it didn't work the first time. Maybe I had a cookie in there or something.)
 
Re: Concept art from ST(2009)

And yet no one has any problems with the concrete floors, suspended light fixtures, steel support beams and tiny pipes with rotating knobs for the engineering set?

That's the Enterprise, mate. The Kelvin sets were much darker and less obviously filmed at a brewery. In fact, it looks like another location entirely.

And a painted floor is a painted floor.

Actually it's not the Kelvin bridge, it's the simulator bridge.

It's both. The Kelvin bridge was dressed up with a window for the academy folks and lit bluishly as opposed to red-ishly. Probably a few other set dressing changes that we won't notice until it hits DVD, as well.

These look to be like Ryan Church's Concept Drawings to be perfectly honest.
 
Re: James Clyne - Star Trek Designer

I starting to really like this Iowa(Kelvin) bridge. :techman:

Looks like a really good evolution from the NX bridge.

I'm now wishing they would have used it instead.
 
Re: Concept art from ST(2009)

Can't...stop....looking...at... Kelvin bridge.

Why... must it... be cooler... than the Enterprise's?

Because Robau captained her? ;)

I honestly don't know. It's so awesomely space-navy, and, ergo better in my eyes.

So where's my frakking Art of Star Trek book?
