Ok my horrid little laptop thought it would be funny to destroy everything it had on it, strange how any computer I seem to own likes to do that, just when I get started on college stuff, grrrr it is so grounded. So apologies for the lack of updates on here, I've spent the entire week crying and playing nurse Mel, coaxing it back to life, just need to get Maya back on there and I'm away. My graphics aren't what they were so somethings missing hmph.
Anyway rambling aside, I'm definately doing the Cathedral hooray. Instead of a flythrough type thing, it's going to be a recreation for a museum exhibition showing the cathedral in the era it would have been built. Jolly good fun I say, so hopefully I can catch up the week I've lost and get stuck into the masses of research needed.

Somebody modelled this?
I hate them already...
Unfortunately the model in question wont be on disply again until 2010 when the new Liverpool museum opens, bummer. Still I like a challenge I do, probably not a good thing. I've scoured the net (again, good ol' trusty internet) and found yet more stunning photos of the model, i'm thinking a spending spree is in order also, Amazon here I come.
Someone has some serious talent and patience to create this, it's a shame it was never completed.

Back to the drawing board...
So the game trailers a no go. I've gone back to the idea of creating a flythrough for a building never built. I've come across a model for a cathedral designed by Edwin Lutyen, the model has been intricatly created to show details but I've found no sign of any virtual tour so I'm thinking this would be a good thing to do as it isn't always on exhibition.
How exquisite is that? The cathedral plans were abandoned after WW2 and the model itself was never completed and restoration on the model has been ongoing since 1992. Edwin Lutyen was commissioned to design a cathedral for the Roman Catholic community in the 1930's on the site of the current Metropolitan Cathedral, WW2 and lack of funds meant only the crypt was ever built.
