I was wondering how some of the minifig spaceship creators here like
designing their ship bridges.  Most Lego ships only have small one-man
cockpits, with a little computer console or some levers.  My own ship under
construction, the Nautilus (http://theforce.net/tinman/nautilus), has a
large Star Trek-style bridge with a viewscreen, captain's chair in the
middle, and twelve other chairs and computer stations surrounding him.

I was just curious as to what other design philosophies others use in design
bridges (or maybe you don't even have a bridge!).

I designed a new bridge last night on my friend's mid-sized big gun
cruiser thingy.  (Crew of >20 with lots of nooks and crannies to cram
necessary items - probably 3-4 feet long, 10 inches tall, and VERY
sturdy)  It turned out really nice, but I don't have pictures
available or even the ship with me so I can LDraw it.  It uses a lot
of sloped computers arranged in a unique way for the front posts, and
has some standing posts in the rear of the bridge.  This bridge has 6
stations including a captain's chair and first officer's chair.  If I
remember, I'll try to get pictures of it to post.
