This is awesome!!!
Hi everybody. As you probably know, next month is the 30th anniversary of TNG. To celebrate I am working on some special TNG inspired costumes to share as a gift for the community. These are still a work in progress and I'm not ready to share the actual costume files yet, but I wanted to share a preview of how they look and welcome any constructive feedback, as I will be making tweaks over the next month before I finally release the files.

I have made both a 'classic' TNG (younger) version as well as a 2410-era (older) version of each character. Certain character's 2410 version is only hypothetical, since some of the characters are dead (Tasha), status unknown (Wesley), or possibly even no longer in Starfleet (Worf).

Anyway, here is the link to the preview:

Like I said any constructive feedback is welcome and I look forward to sharing these files next month for the anniversary =)

PS: to clarify, I will be releasing the actual costume files that you can use in game on your own characters/boffs, not just pictures =P

    Young Picard looks a tad too young.
    Why not use the Denise Crosby facial files for Tasha?
    A narrower face would be more appropriate for young Data. And can the older Data have the central grey stripe? (Skunk stripe as seen in the All Good Things.)

    Nor should they be. Their ships would look weird.

    This is fan made by a player, not the devs. Outside of demo-record, you cannot use the celeb face files in game. These are all made by creatively using the in game tailor. My friend in fleet is actually the ones who is making these, so that is how I know this.

    Ahh. Sorry I thought you were a dev asking for some feedback. So scrub feedback on Tasha. Also hair stripe is not doable to my knowledge. But the narrower young face for Data is still a suggestion.

    Given your limited number of assets to use I applaud you on your work. Some seem a bit off but some seem well spot on. They all resemble the TNG cast though & are recognizable mostly at first or second glance.

    He's an android, he doesn't change.

    Sometimes I think I play STO just to have something to complain about on the forums.

    Actually when Brent Spiner began putting on weight they tossed in a bit where he was designed to age a bit. He was skinny in first season.
