I wouldn't mind doing a prometheus shuttlebay - that ship looks like it's actually got a decent one (like the constitution refit's shuttle/cargo bay)

MMMMMMM the handle rails still seem un-natural....perhaps a more ergo-nomic shape...................DON'T IGNORE ME!.............I want to nitpick!....kind of like a last day of the year treat!

So then are you going to fix it?

And why did you ignore me concerning the lights?......I want to see a lights off render?......the top lights kind of like powered down super saver mode....and red alert mode yeah that’s 2 requests

Nighttime mode and battle mode


So then there you have it!........Oh yeah you still rule and I still love you even though you ignore me....no no it's okay I will be okay

JUST FIX IT!...........

Sho likes the railings, so they stay. I don't feel like changing them anyway - I'd have to do it for every single section, which would take hours.

I like 'em.

BTW, Sean is going to do a "Red Alert" version of every set we do. Well, of every set he does for me, to be specific.

I dunno, I think the railings are fine. In fact they're probably only there for when, say, the inertial dampeners fail under fire. Other than that, they're just ornamental.

I too would enjoy seeing some other lighting though.

Well, they're for the library section of my RPG's homepage. It's the third chapter in the USS Encounter's life, and this time, we're going to have all those things we always wanted.

Actually, that's what I wanted to use them for (with a bit of a "repaint" in photoshop to give them some differences)... I've got a whole image section of totmm.com that's empty, and I need some stuff for it.

Though I am learning a bit with my bridge redux, so I'll probably end up making my own... Or finally scraping up enough cash to commission one...

That really is not an option. The only way you'd be able to use these sets is if you commissioned a redress of them. Then everything would be done in the scene itself and you'd have access to the meshes. No photoshopping, though.

I know, and you can rest assured that I won't be upping them to the web. They are sitting on my hard drive for ready reference, though...

Nice door. Aren't your light panels a little too yellow though?

I hope you add more panels too. You need something for an engineer to open and fiddle with when the doors get jammed and the people inside are stuck in a holodec program with the safeties off.

It'd also be cool if you did something like they had on Voyager with the alcove that had the big equipment panels and access to the jeffries tubes (other than just a door)

And are you going to do a set that would be like the officers' quarters' corridor/ten forward entry corridors...that they had on TNG and Voy?

Hehe, I love this thread!

Those veticle panels pop off to reveid all manner of equipment, incelding the door release mechanism.

The jeffries tubes hatches are in te flor (the only logical place for em).

This shot shows a crridor that ends with a door to the mess hall:

I disagree. The most logical way to enter would be in a junction room, off a ladderway. Like in the Ent-D's engineering room.

Stairs take more room, and, despite the spaciousness of living and working areas, space is at a premium aboard any spacecraft.

Ew, it looks like you've set the shadows to raytraced, which doesn't work particularly well - it definately needs soft shadows because the light emiting objects are large panels emitting a uniform level of light accross their entire surface rather than individual bare bulbs. Otherwise, it looks good.

I think pending on the onfiguration, the jefferies tubes should have hatches in walls and in floors (which we have both seen on the Ent-E - First Contact AND Nemesis featured these different styles. First Contact showed both, actually.)

Nice work guys. I did not care for it at first, now it is growing on me.

Actually, Sean just informed me he's going to add a Jeffries tube wall access hatch to the corridor segment that's part of the transporter room scene he's currently doing for me.

Anyway, I'm going to render my brand new officer's mess now.

Sean, you're the best.

I'm just crying because I know I'll never be able to reproduce this look (with a couple of changes to avoid plaigarism charges) in Lightwave... At least not without one helluva lot of practice...
