No problem, as I said these are placeholders. To be honest those are actually the tactical panels of the Enterprise D

. I'd probably try to steal the Dbridge panels and attempt to clean them up (they are rather low res).

Allright. Fixed.

Now what about the plaque and maybe that front table?

tha's better, also have you thought about merging LCARS with TMP displays like LCARS side frame buttons (those LCARS buttons on side of display) and instead of the rest LCARS style things put TMP buttons and some TMP display would look cool ;)

Well, I do want this to kind of be a TNG bridge

. This is kind of around Season 2 or 3 of TNG. The Defiant was in the works and the Akira was just starting it's heyday. I want to give it some TMP appearance of a newly upgraded bridge module without looking too ancient.

However, I don't see what's wrong with having that front desk be a mix of the two. I will try to work on it. And I still need to figure out to do with that plaque

. Any suggestions?

maybe put something like TOS plaque but without name on it so big SF logo, shipyard name and some irrelevant names of engineers

Barihawk · « **Reply #105 on:** September 24, 2008, 11:49:19 AM »

I'll try

Barihawk · « **Reply #106 on:** September 24, 2008, 04:01:50 PM »

Dedication plaque added. Not really going to bother making a screenshot for it.

One last panel to animate and it's released.

Work on TMP Generic Bridge has begun. All I have so far is carpet, beams and the forward wall. This will not be such a drastic change in terms of lighting and such. Just a prettying up of the bridge, really. I am thinking blue chairs :o. And wood will be avoided.

Yes, please!

ouh thats very nice.
nice chair color...could be used on more bridges...

Aeries · « **Reply #111 on:** September 29, 2008, 07:59:48 PM »

I couldn't agree more. This looks real nice.

Barihawk · « **Reply #112 on:** September 29, 2008, 10:35:43 PM »

This one is going to take a signifigantly longer time. Reason? Aside from...9 panels borrowed from Dr. McCoy, I am going to have everything else done by hand by me in the same styling. Which is looking like a long time. There will not be copy/pasting from one to another, either. Every single one will be unique.

This is a WIP, of course. But compare the left panel with the one on the right to get an idea. And yes, I will not leave the upper panels blank like I did with the ETNG bridge. I will either put computer displays up there or some kind of large scale panelling. We will have to wait and see, replacing current displays are a priority.

Aeries · « **Reply #113 on:** September 29, 2008, 11:05:41 PM »

Ah, very cool stuff dude.

Good luck.

Bones · « **Reply #114 on:** October 01, 2008, 04:17:10 PM »

Hey it looks uber cool

now I have to finish up my ENT-B retexture and PDW Excelsior bridge and we'll have ambassador bridge in every era (late TMP - Ent-C, late TNG - Yamaguchi, early TNG - generic bridge, your mid-TMP W.I.P. and finally my NEM era bridge

)
as a small tip : you could change those underpanels at the back stations to those cool blue/red pannels from TMP bridges like Ent-A or Excelsior...
also it would be cool if you could make some displays based on ST6 or 5 displays.

btw. check the Dallas bridge (be sure it's my version) there are some displays you could base on (they're pretty unique and different than those I made for ENT-B)

Barihawk · « **Reply #115 on:** October 01, 2008, 04:29:14 PM »

I will try but I like the color scheme you used for the Ent B

.

And thanks for the underpanel suggestion. I never liked it and a little red cushioning couldn't look too bad.

Barihawk · « **Reply #116 on:** October 02, 2008, 11:29:40 AM »

Went for blue cushioning. I am tempted to make some of the upper panel in the padding as well but that will come much later.

What color should I use for the carpet?

Bones · « **Reply #117 on:** October 02, 2008, 01:07:48 PM »

Hm... it's somewhat weird to have red carpet and blue wall :? get 3rd Era Late-TMP Miranda bridge, there a lot better panels although they're about the same color as your cpt. chair.

I've came with some options you could use :
1) Red floor & Red panels (be sure to use those from late-TMP Miranda and recolor them to the same color as that floor)
2) Graphite floor/ faint blue & Red Panels like in 1st option
3) Graphite floor/ faint blue & blue Panels

Barihawk · « **Reply #118 on:** October 02, 2008, 01:23:23 PM »

I went with option #3. Kind of pleased with the result, actually.

Kirk · « **Reply #119 on:** October 02, 2008, 01:24:23 PM »

Much better. I like it.
