[QUOTE]Originally posted by Basill: [QB] Well, amidst this chaos I will post my first message in a week or so. I have been busy interviewing for a new job and finally got it. I have not been able to update my 3D views yet but I now have a week+ before I begin so I will have some free time coming up. The logo is coming along pretty well. I like some of Bernd's suggestions and I must put my vote in for the slightly less authoritarian/hail-the-conquering-hero logo mindset. Just my two cents. I have been looking over the plans a little more and though my official job is making 3D those tech-objects which David sets forth, I have a few little nitpicks to offer up. If anyone had already touched upon any these issues I apologize and feel free to move along. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG] Correct me if I am wrong (very easy for me). It does not appear that the chief security officer has an office as Tuvok does in the show (at least I haven't found it labeled as such yet). This office is little more than a redress of Chakotay's office (which as the XO's office, is represented in the plans) and thus would probably be on the same deck. I know it has not been decided which ship and when in relation to "Voyager canon" this project falls but this seems a little odd. Plus, some detail for you; I recently watched a Voy rerun: It showed the slow (non-warp) star movement outside Chakotay's office viewport. It indicates Chakotay's office is on the port side of the ship rather than starboard as the plans show for the XO's office. Also in relation to those offices. The sets have entrance doors that are roughly perpendicular to the viewport and opposite the officer's desk. Maybe you could reflect this in the deck plans with a minor edit. The plans currently show the office to open up onto the corridor, doorway opposite the outer hull, but the set's actual configuration could be correctly reflected maybe by adding only a small room between the corridor and the office itself. The office set does seem a little more cramped than they are in these plans. The Captains quarters. Don't know if it is even important, but the set for Janeway's quarters has the exact opposite layout to the layout offered in the deck plans. Maybe no big deal. The pilot episode showed that the crew's mess on deck two (voyager's version of Ten-forward) had replicators facing the fore of the ship, opposite the forward viewports. There was no apparent access to any room beyond it until it was decided that cooking food would be a necessity. The captain actually had her own little private dining room which Neelix usurped to create his leola root cuisine kitchen. The layout in the deck plans show access to this area from the lounge area only, but the Captain entered it from the outer corridor in the episode "Phage". (she also referred to it as "cabin 125 alpha, deck 2" and "the captain's private dining room" as labeled in the ship's directory) Neelix walked in on the captain exploring for coffee by that same doorway in the very next episode "The Cloud". Also on this deck throughout the first season, there was a row of exterior viewports along part of this deck's corridor, with a turbo lift at the aftward end. The only place this setup would work is where you have VIP quarters located (though I always thought this was a poor allocation of exterior viewports). Maybe this is why they are ignored in the present layout you have. If so please ignore this minor point. This is lengthier than I had planned so I will shut up for a while and breathe. I will try to have some 3D updates later this weekend if all goes well. [/QB][/QUOTE]
