Quoted For Truth.

Thanks, "i had a feeling it meant quite f**king true" :D

Good, because that's the one I am leaning towards :P.

Lots of work to do on this one. I want to make the panels look as good as possible so I am going to have to put some transparent gradients on there. But I still want the LCARS to look vivid as opposed to dull.

I think I might do TNG version first as I have the color pallet all set up still from the Pegasus bridge. My model will be Admiral Hansen's bridge from BoBW.

A retexture of the Ent C bridge would be good. What with all the incredible-nous going around in BC.  :D

Only those whose lives are brief can imagine that love is eternal. You should embrace that remarkable illusion. It may be the greatest gift your race has ever received."

I thought Hansen's was an Excelsior class.

i dont know how valid this info may be, but according to this http://www.memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/J.P._Hanson

Quote
It is possible that the command ship that Admiral Hanson was on was the USS Melbourne, but this has not been established on screen. In fact, the script called for Hanson to appear on a Galaxy-class bridge, the battle bridge set was used instead during filming. The Melbourne appeared in the episode only as a Nebula-class ship (although an Excelsior-class ship with the same name and registry appeared for the flashback to the Battle of Wolf 359 in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's "Emissary".

Well, I've made some revolutionary breakthroughs in redoing the Pegasus bridge so I might do a little work. I also like the dark colors of the Pegasus, so I may have found my wall textures. We will see. Still need to get weapons lockers working.

if you look at the set in the background of the shot of Hanson on the bridge you can actually see TMP style Red alert screens.  also at the beginning of the episode he is taken to the Enterprise in an Excelsior class (the shot is a reuse of the Hood in Encounter at Farpoint.)

Essentially Hansen's bridge was a redress of the Enterprise C set.

A bit more work. The upper corners of the back wall will be left blank, although I might add some sort of static panelling. The LCARS were just not working. Instead I gave them a gradient to simulate a light at the top. Now I just need to make some custom panels back there, or find some that will translate well.

Looks awesome :D I love that gradiented wall could you do the same to the center wall, would be even better ;) I'm glad you still work on this.
btw. this will be LCARS or late TMP displays ???

More than likely a mix of the two types of displays. And thanks for the advice on the center wall. I will try.

With center wall fix and a few panels. Unfortunately I could not find all the panels I needed. I guess this is where that "mix" of Late TMP and TNG will come in. I ripped the Galaxy bridge to pieces for these :P.

EDIT: On second though, I may just get rid of the "MSD" as there's nothing really I can think to put there. Any thoughts? At least it would make it easier on Saffi's neck.

*very* nice work so far. I can totally see these replacing the stock textures that come with KM...

Her neck is irrelevant. Let it snap. I'd support any who snap it.

As for the MSD... Perhaps a detailed star chart?

hmm a star chart?  not sure if i can visualize that...  it is a big area of space to fill, and a star chart might look like someone hung a poster on the wall lol j/k :P  then again, it might work...
maybe if it could somehow be broken up?  random lcars and isolinear chips or whatever to fill the space?  lol  i dunno, im just thinking randomly, im not sure what would be best to fill up that space...
