• Console Construction
  Photo (1360x1020 - 190k)
  Phil Sterett's done it again! This shot conclusively proves tons of stuff we had previously worked out - the most major one is the angle of the very top of the two front consoles which had been assumed due to reflections, but are now shown in high relief. Good going Phil!
   
• From Keith Scaife / Phil Sterett - an even clearer version of "the Ultimate Interior Shot" only it's in B/W. Also on the "Equipment Locker" page. (1424x1112 pixels))))))
• From Captain Cardboard - the Ultimate Interior Shot. Also on the "Equipment Locker" page.
   
• Side Console Orientation
  Retouched (624x427 - 52k)
  Raw (432x428 - 35k)
  The plans show the side consoles as angling outward significantly, but this analysis of CC's photo shows that the angle is nearly zero. Had I caught this a long time ago, the plans would have been updated to reflect it.
    
• Recessed Center Console
  Helmet (2362x1046 - 395k) | Sans Helmet (2326x1085 - 417k)
  Stephen comes through again with these great shots showing, among other details, the heretofore unnoticed depression between the horizontal console and the central console. As can be seen in these shots, the two main consoles  meet up exactly with the central console, rather than being recessed behind it. Very nice catch that explains a lot - especially why the interior seemed a bit cramped in the model!
    
• "The Walker Photo"
  Small (392x267 - 21k) | Large (3173x2125 - 468k) | Enhanced (1586x1062 - 469k)
  Courtesy of Stephen Remato (Reservoir8C), this is a great shot from the front of the Pod looking back. Shows the complete layout of the panel sets. If you brighten up the larger image, you can see the equipment locker on the starboard side.

• Ceiling Ring - Side View with Kubrick
  Small (350x231 - 32k) | Medium (700x462 - 83k) | Large (708x568 - 142k)
  Nice side shots showing the ring around the top of the Pod interior. The large scan extends further down.

• Smoking Kubrick - Viewfinder
  Philster's Scan: Excellent job bringing out details of the Protruding Panel.
  Res's Scans:
       Main (816x143 - 136k) Same as in Bizony
       Main Processed (816x143 - 84k) Above, but processed to show details of the A/C Vents
       Detail (333x332 - 22k) Close up of above
       Detail Processed (333x332 - 10k) Same as, but processed to show more details
   
• Overhead Widely Cropped
  More widely cropped version of the standard overhead shot. This one almost lets us see what the deal with the protruding panel is.

• Waldo Controller
  This is very difficult if not impossible to see in the DVD. Notice that it is below the control panel. Page 102 of Bizony appears to show that there are two of these controllers.
  Also note that the side control panels are pie shaped (best way to explain it, but you'll see in the photo) and that there are two distinct portions of them. For more details see ...
   
• Side Consoles, Protruding Consoles & A/C Vent
  Original Photo | Composite 1 | Composite 2
  Concept Drawing 1
  This is where old-style VHS comes in REALLY handy. Notice how the control panel and rear wall work together. Check out the A/C vent next to Dave's head! Am I the only person who never noticed that before? The A/C vent is probably the extension of the ceiling  "wing" that can be seen in ...

• Ceiling 
  VHS Copy | DVD Copy | Essential Kubrick (AKA Reverse Shot)
  The VHS version shows more detail (even though it's fuzzier). Here you can see where the A/C vent comes down from the ceiling.
  Does anyone know what's in the insets in the doorway? Dave does something in one of them before he blows the hatch, but I can't see what.
  The scan from "The Essential Kubrick" is sent to us courtesy of Stephen Remato (Reservoir8C).
   
• Ceiling
  Close up of scan from the b/w plates in the middle of the book. Shows the layout of the controls better than the captures from the film. The color shot from Essential Kubrick (above) makes this shot obsolete, but I'm leaving it in the list.

• Rear Walls - New! 5/27/2001
  Enhanced view of the rear walls - confirming the angles shown in the "Dave and Frank have a discussion" photo. Thanks to Philster!
