Teletraan-I / Ark / Nemesis Display Panels!

[Hobbes-timus Prime]

I've got no room for something like this, but I'd like to build a small display case where I could cut out the board beneath the monitor sections and backlight it to make them look like actual glowing computer screens...as is I'll probably end up making a small folding diorama thingee out of two "walls" and a "floor" so I can actually display it in my apartment.

Awesome pics. Awesome post. Awesome service to your fellow members! Well done!

Wow. T1's gonna look great finished, I just know it.

 

That really is a great background setup you've constructed. :)

WOW! This is amazing :-)..... Are you finished the Teletran1 part yet? As I would love to try it.

Working on it, the layout's pretty much done, I'm working on all the tedious panel lines. I work at an ad agency, so I've been pulling some late nights the last few nights with actual work, but my train ride is usually a nice break to give me time to detail Teletraan.

 

I may finish the center module first, and then make 2 extra side units to bookend it, but they're actually different consoles, so I don't want to make a mirror version... It could be that I just reskin or move around pieces, like I did for the side plates.

 

I'll try and post a more up-to-date later today or tomorrow...

 

Will probably be at least a week til I finish it, with the work that's on my plate at work right now...

 

Thanks for the interest though, I'm really interested in seeing people's displays when they're done.

Very cool and very generous of you to provide nice big files. I'll be sure to post pics when I get around to making some background displays. Looking forward to Teletran-1!

Quick update, tonight's train ride home was profitable, if not crackhead-filled to boot!

 

Here's a newer preview, it' still missing:

Middle console attachment (big forked thing with the "visor" looking bar)

Left side raised screen/module

Right side raised screen/module

Body lines (3/4 done) and detail components/electronics

Weathering/Texturing/Lighting

Screen content

 

That said, it's coming along nicely, I still have some details to fill in besides the line work (it's tedious, but worth it... when printed full size, it looks much better, screen resolution doesn't do it justice, the PSD file ends up with all the details really blurry).

 

Full View (score lines are light, in black, for reference):

This is SOOOOOOOOO Great! I've been looking and wanting something like this for so long! Fortunately, I work with a print shop, so I can get these printed to whatever size--On our nice poster machine that does it in high gloss photo paper stock. I'm going to be detailing the mirrored glass on each of my cabinets finally I think--thanks so so much!! Great work..Pics coming soon!

Any updates? very excited :-)
