Here's another bridge for #ThrowbackThursday! The small Saber-Class USS Yeager.

I've tinkered with this one a lot over the years since first "finishing" it, adding details like the wood texture on the handrails and the more colorful LCARS, I think in the end I managed to get the room a nice mix of contrasting colors.

Tadeo D'Oria - Online Portfolio - USS Yeager Bridge

The USS Yeager NCC-61947 was a Saber-Class starship we saw in the feature film 'Star Trek: First Contact' as a background ship. We never saw much of the Saber-Class after that, other than some unnamed background appearances. This is my conjectural take on how its bridge looked like during the events of the movie, in 2373. Given the compact exterior of the ship and the unofficial crew complement of only 40 people, I went with a very small bridge, while still being state-of-the-art for the era the ship appeared in. Created entirely using Free and Open Source Software (Blender and Inkscape) on Ubuntu Linux.

@Rekkert niice work ! Blender has really matured recently. Random thought .. wondering if there is a simple way to get scenes like this from Blender into a webGL view page .. so that everywoman can simply enjoy the 3D goodness in their browser.

@justgord Thanks! Not without a lot of work, as this isn't done on the real time renderer (Eevee), but on the production renderer (Cycles), which in simple terms means it's a lot more realistic but it can't be navigated in real time like a video game. :)
