Here's a random thought that just came to me:  What would the HLP facility actually look like?  Thought it might be interesting to see what any of you think.  (Knowing some of the people here, they would want it to look something along the lines of "terrifying" or "mind-****ing".)  Heck, maybe somebody might do a model!  So........what are your thoughts?  <braces for possible torrent of replies.>

It would look a giant white glove surrounded by twelve sleeping cows. Why? Because Shrike is secretely a French avante-garde visual artist, and would use the opportunity to express his frustriation with the loss of the subjecitve thought-experience as reflected in the the hegemony of the post-industrial Lacanian dialectic.

It's an Arcadia and don't you God damned well forget it. With a headz bar at one end and a seafood place that we wuv at the other.

[aldo_14]

Like Gods techno-mechanical armpit.

The bar would look like this:



They sell headz, fishes and Bosch Power Mix over the counter.

[Fineus]

I see HLP to look something rather like Half Lifes "Citidel".

[Primus]

Depends on budjet... Since the income is low, the facility would actually be a hovel, something like in Black & White game.

I drew my rendition of it based on the HLP movie some time ago, the shape is based on how I made people move back and forth from sector to sector, bla bla bla, all that stuff (these are all old, obviously my drawing skill has improved a little ):

The station herself:


Hard Light Forum (the squares are all "threads" - the little couch things):



A Hard Light Defense Turret:



Hard Light Control Room (aweful perspective on this one ):



Grandeur's bridge (more perspective errors):

[CP5670]

Nice sketches.

Are those chairs on the raised platform for the admins?

[Unknown Target]

Yea - read one of the earlier scenes, it talks about the half-moon table where they sit

[an0n]

No, they're for when the Justice League drop by....

 

EDIT: Damn stupid lack of 'post just made' feature.

Oh, hell yeah! We should do up a theme to go along with that!

[Goober5000]

WIGGY WIGGY WIGGY!

[Grey Wolf]

Very cyberpunk, with flashy neon covering up the signs of decay and poverty.

That is one of many things I wanted to hear.  Tho, if that's true, once again considering the people who frequent here, we would have to be talking about one heavily modified Arcadia.

  Terrific stuff! Keep it coming!!

EDIT:  Unknown Target, I like the drawings.  Did you consider putting in a secluded section of the station for all the wierdest and/or most unpleasant types here?  If so, make it jettisonable.

[Kie99]

Far too many females in that pic.

[BlackDove]

I don't think that was the point of him posting that picture.

[Turnsky]

look familiar?

somthing i rigged up real quick in DOGA.

[Unknown Target]

Haha, that looks AWESOME Turnsky! I was wondering what happened to that Great job, my only complaint is that the docking pods should be farther away from the middle, methinks, but I LOVE that

By the way, just doodled this...doodle, heh
