      Well done! I really like the marquee. What's with the barrel to the right? Is the pipework functional or just there because it looks cool?

        Thanks. It's functional as a coin changer. Check out my blog section titled Bonus for a full explanation.

            Looks great, and looks like a lot more effort than I'm putting into my own stuff :-)

                  Ah, got it. I wasn't familiar with that term, although I am a TNG fan. I see how it is similar but my design was inspired mostly from Defender. I talk about it in part 10 of my blog at http://zopingo.com/dans-blog/part-10-artwork.

                    Outstanding work! 😎👍

                    As for LCARS, among Linux users it's sometimes said to be an abbreviation for Linux Can Also Run Starships. 😉

                            Since my original post I finished the graphics on the bezel. Many thanks to Escape Pod for the printing and installation; they did an awesome job!
