Great job yet again Turbo. Looks like i might have to redo the GS base to keep up .

"Love it...did you apply this to any other rooms?"

Naw, heh, ran outa prestiage. Finally got enough to finish up that room and add the last port to "war zone". I'll post a pic later. Thanks again for the idea.

after some more cash, http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...rterscreen.jpg

"The room on the left looks like a Star Tek porter. Is that what you had in mind?"

Guess it kinda does huh. Nope, set it up for a decon chamber with security check point, as the corridor there leads to our vault area.

I originally had those vents in all the porters as well, nice look, but I found that with the porters, "sunk" into the floor some, the porter access panels became unreachable.

"I'm kidnapping that thought!"

Heh, glad you liked the idea. Im sure you can improve on it.

Reworking my base with a space theme. Will post progress tonight.

Look forward to it Turbo. Thanks

Well here it is. Its a rough draft right now. As you can see, I am working on the glass pannels. I am looking for insperation, still undecided as to what I should do with the room on the left. The stars arent all placed just yet, so keep an open mind. This room will have no function.

The stars are simply wall lamps on completely blacked out walls I take it?

It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

Red, I bet he's probably using blacked out banners, as I ended up using. They work the best for the dark look, and the lights that are on, don't reflect to much that way.

Turbo, I found the "on" wall lights to be a lil to bright, only using a few allowing the light from those to enhance the "off" lights. But it looks from those pics that you used almost all "on" lights? Is that correct? I did use a few rusted round vents for flavor. Just curious. Thanks.

Its the smallest wall light avalable which doesnt come turned off, but I wish it did! I added depth by placing some in front of others.

Closed off.


Working on the other side, then some tech units and lights for the inside of the room, then im done.

Continuing this project. I currently have 3 rooms to make with the space theme. I will post the progress as I go as always. All my other projects will be put on hold until completed.

I am open to suggestions!

I closed off the other side and am in the process of adding the other stars. I decided to make this a colaition room which I thought would be neat if we were looking out into space. The lighting is off for now as well as some stars to help me place objects. More to come!

That last picture looks pretty sweet. Very Justice-League-Watchtower-esque. I can certainly picture a bunch of superheroes sitting around that table discussing the fate of the world.

And me building a spaceship... Great idea... And I will so use it to make a few windows in it.

Thanks!

ps. Did you do anything to make the walls behind the stars more black or just light? You could use the MRI scan to make almost black walls.

Wow this is looking quite remarkable. I may have to lift this idea for my tech teleporter rooms make something kind of like the teleport stations in the Carpenter classic They Live. Coming along great I can’t wait to see the end product

How did you make the windows infront of the star field? I saw some comments about using a SG banner and rotating every other one 180 degrees and covering part of it, but I didn't understand the technique.
