They look frozen in time!

Great work.

Yes,you're right...that was only a test to see how it'd look on the screen.I'll
give'em life with my first "ST Mego episode" serie.Writing a "new" episode chapter to the ST saga is the goal of this project.
I know I'll have a lot of fun doin'it even if it's gonna take me forever to write a scenario,dialogues,shooting and adding proper sounds etc.At least,I'll make
one and if the "feedback" is good,I'll risk another...
Any help or suggestions is welcome

WOW, that was impressive...good job! I like the set & the authentic beeps/chirps is kinda funny, made it really seem alive.

Thanks,you're right about the authenticity of the sound,it's actually taken from a "sound effects from the original tv soundtrack" CD I purchased a couple of years ago(being a big fan of Star Trek TOS).It contains around 70
different sounds from the serie(+animated)

I really like your "freestyle" take on the good old Enterprise. Lots of hard work has gone into this baby!
Is it built like a book shelf arrangement, or is each set a seperate piece? Either way it must be enormous!

Keep on Trekkin'!!

You're right,IT IS HUGE;it is almost 3 foot square and can be detach in 4 sections,first the door&walls&step;then the entire right and left side(up the ramp)and the floor itself with the Capt.chair and Sulu/Chekov console.When
I'll put the electrical lightning system it will be one hell of a big set.
It took me almost a year of work and I had to redo all the console on both sides to fit 3 rows of lighting to "recreate" the original;also Sulu&Chekov console has it's own inner lighthing system(battery)I'll shoot a "screen test"
of it as soon as my "transporter room" lights will be ready.
More to come soon.

They won't be on strike for long...a lot of work is awaiting them where no wo-man has gone before...

That's a lotta lights, pretty cool

That's the best I could do with the light sets that I had...
Anyway,it's good enough to start filming my first "episode";the title?
Ghost Ship:IF everything goes well,maybe...maybe Part 1 will be ready in
time for Xmas...
Yummy...All the screen tests are done so I can consider that this project is no longer "in progress" but finished(as far as building the sets)so I'll continue
to answer your questions or comments here until the first part of Ghost Ship.
(first segment around 10 minits)
