Development Log: January 7 - 10, 2011

After learning how to use Blender and Unity in CS 527 Computer Animation what do I do next? Model the bridge of the Starship Enterprise? My motivation was a long desire to create a model of the bridge of the starship Enterprise as seen in the first four Star Trek films. I have seen many digital renditions of the bridge of the Enterprise, however these tend to be the original TV, Star Trek V/VI, The Next Generation, or The Next Generation film versions.

Initial modeling of the bridge. As with the original set, the model is divided into 12 sections. I started with the turbolift sections, followed by the security station.
