Total nerd alert here. For those of you who really are completely obsessed with this show, I need some help.
Does anyone have a good idea of the layout of the Venture compound? I've been working on a scale model in Sketchup8 and have been noticing some discrepancies in certain locations.
I know they did a concept overhaul, from season 1&2 to Season 3&4. The compound was very boxy and tall before. Now, and since seasons 3&4 the main building and corridor resembles the 1964 GM World's fair exhibit. (Which I like better, because the compound is sleeker, and more coherent in its design. Rather than being a big stalky splotch of windows and shapes.)
Example 1: The Venture bathroom seems to change its orientation. The doors to it have been: from the boy's room, Rusty's room, and the hall way. But its orientation changes from time to time. Example 2: The X-1 Hangar location seems to be lucid as well. There are 2 hangars, one near the venture home, and another out back of the compound near the airstrip.
I realize that it's just a show, and crazy to pick it apart. If anything, it can give a nod to the outrageous quality in the background artwork for this show. And for some of you, highlight the unique depth that goes into making every detail. I love this show violently, but hey, feel free to tell me: "hey guy, that's just a little crazy, so put the banana down pal." lol But, I'm just looking for a little input.
