This is a Data Disk Reader. They were used to record personal logs and view information off of the disks used aboard ship and at starbases. Thanks to Craig Sheeler for reference images so that I could model this. He has his original prop for sale on Ebay right now for anyone interested….

That looks real nice

I miss the way the images used to load too. Trying to make tutorial threads is a nightmare this way.

......................

Having watched a certain episode several times, hopefully I now have enough reference images to make a better brig. I suspect that the designer of the brig didn’t necessarily look at the same floorplans we’ve found however, should make for an interesting set.

If anybody else is interested in making one too this episode has the images: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hunted_(Star_Trek:_The_Next_Generation)

In the meantime I have made a little flowerpot for those that would like one.

So, this is a TOS Kindle/Nook?

Pretty much, but no doubt it is full of functions that we don’t have on our current technology.  I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s got some A.I. and some very long range communication functions.  We never saw them do anything but read some voice reports into it in TOS, but then again, if it wasn’t needed in a script, it wouldn’t be shown.

great job, I love genre mixing.

For me, I only needed to allow “Cloudflare.com” to see the images.

Just submitted the Dawnstar to F3D.  Hopefully it will be available within the next 24hrs.

I’m using Opera 11 and I cant find where to “allow” cloudflare.com. And I find it interesting that when I first log-in for the first time of the day I can see images. Later in the day when I come back to the forums suddenly I cant see images but yet I’m still logged in. I dont have this issue on my home computer. Just at work. if it’s the firewall I have no control over that. Just interesting that it’s happening now. I’ve logged on here at work before and not had this issue until now.

And after I posted the images disappeared again…. ARGH!

Doesnt seem to be any “lens flares” in the new movie…

Still haven’t figured out who the bad guy is yet.

Reminds me of the “How It Should Have Ended : Star Trek: How It Should Have Ended” when they turn off the “lens flares generators” - Classic!

This Guy

Interesting concept, although if this is a alternate timeline how would he exist?

I dont know, i dont use Opera.

My guess is it’s Kahn, but since this is all part of the re-imagine look.

My guess is it’s a disgruntled Starfleet Officer either from the past or current current re-imagined timeline, but I think it’s Kahn…hands down all the way Kahn. maybe in name alone.

All freebies have been updated to the front page, sorry about not getting the word out. 

I’m hopeing to wrap up the Mirror Universe Grapic novel in the next week, then spend a week with word balloons and placement of text.  If all goes well…it should be an early Merry Christmas gift.

-one note of fact.  I broke away from the standard graphic novel look and have gone with 1 or 2 frames per page. Each image took my computer close to 8-45 minutes to render.  (ie I7 processor (8 cores), 8gb Ram, 3Gb video and have to thank Shadowhawk1 for giveing it to me.)
