Ah! you go, Kendra! Egyptian architecture sets do nicely for Goa'uld scenes!

Oh yeah, Egyptian sets work perfect for SG1 artwork. Here's one I did last year.

The Jumper Bay was, I believe, one floor up and had the retracting roof as well as the retracting floor for dropping down into the gate room.

Yes, my concern is that a camera view from the top of the main stairway looking toward the gate might see the bottom of that hexagonal vertical shaft. So, I'd like to be able to include the gate room ceiling and the lower part of that shaft in this model. I can't find any schematics for that, nor any screengrabs of it. I can just omit it, but it would be nice to include.

The conference room was, I believe, a dead end. Not even a balcony if I remember correctly.

Agreed; I have the circular conference room included. What puzzles me is what is in the space on the level below it. Specifically, the half outside of that wall/doorway.

Joseph Mallozzi has the plans for Atlantis on his blog on wordpress and in the forums at gateworld if you search blueprints there's quite a lot of info.

Thank you! Found that blog and forum. Don't see schematics for that segue between gate room ceiling and the hex shaft going up to the jumper bay iris. I think all of that transition area was greenscreened/CGI (no physical stage set).

I think there was a transporter on the gate room floor to the left (if you were facing the stargate).

I included the trapezoid-shaped intra-city transporter (the elevator-like gizmo); look for the pink human figure under the circular conference room in the Silo screenshot above - he's in the intra-city transporter. If you mean one of the general purpose ring transporters, I don't see a ringset on any schematic, but I do seem to recall seeing one used in some episode. Here is a transporter in the "Quarantine" episode:

If you want help with textures I'd be willing to help out. I'm sure others would too. :)

Texturing images would be of great help in particular (orthogonal shots of control panels, orthogonal floor/wall/ceiling samples, etc); help with working up the Poser materials in general would be helpful - there will be many material zones which will need to be textured in order to finish this project.
