Looks nice! But does all the consoles (computers..?) need full qwerty
keyboards? As I imagine, they do rather simple things, and that could
(should?) be managed with simple sets of big, colorful buttons, sliders and
small, funny, blinking lights =) Apart from that, I belive they are a bit
hard to use when they hang like that.. But of course, that depends on the
looks of the crew :)
I like the light setup!

The term has been around since the 1940s at least, thanks to the Big Three
in science fiction.

Cheers!

Cool image, can't wait to see the crew!  Is the Surface Scan a screen 
from WarCraft II? It looks like it :)

No.  It's the granite pattern with blue, green, brown, gray and white
as the colors, in that order.

True, if workstations don't need to be reconfigured to handle different
operations from time to time...

The keyboards are an object I used in another setting (two of my
prior IRTC animations used it), but with a different material_map.

I'm designing a new robot to crew the ship.

Just a few area lights.

If that's what I give him, that's what he gets!

If all robots got their qwerty keyboards, there would be no T100s and
T1000s freaking out on people. Guess they had qwertz to drive them
over the edge.
