I'm sick of my roleplaying group complaining that Pathfinder 1e is "too complicated", so I'm thinking of running a game of this for them instead. That'll show those bastards what complicated is.

The Voyage Home: tan, I guess?
I mean this one doesn't work because most of the movie looks like 1986 San Francisco. And the rest of it looks like Search for Spock. There's really not much interesting to talk about here, but that's fine because we get to talk TNG next instead.

This is where it all comes together. For the next ten years this is the foundation of most Federation visuals, right up until the they decide to drop "coffee". It's a great combination that also works extremely well with deep reds and blues. It was great until they also dropped "cool grey".

The Search for Spock: tan.
I know what you're thinking: look at all the crisp 80s set lighting and solid greys! But people always forget just how beige the 80s was. At this point you know it's deliberate and not just a fluke of lighting or film quality.

The Wrath of Khan: Star Trek enters it's tan era.
The monster maroons have that tan energy. All the greys are softened with more natural tones and subtler lighting. Even the bright colours of space are more like oil paintings. It looks great but it also signals a shift.

Hell yeah.

The Motion Picture: The perfect synthesis of tan and blue-grey. This makes sense because it's the best Trek movie but also because it defines how Star Trek will look for the next 30 years.
No really.
Also it's the first time Trek eschewed all those vivid colours. It's oddly austere.

Alright, back to it. TAS: Same as before, solidly blue-grey but with a little spicy purple flavour.

TOS: Comfortably blue-grey after a slightly tan pilot.
It's kind of a weird one since TOS belongs to a different era of futurism than all its spin-offs, and was largely filmed to be eye-catching on colour TV. I was tempted to class this one as consistently neither.
