THAMES BARGE

This proved a fascinating prop to model, since much of their construction detail has been lost to history despite playing such a large part in the empire's day to day functioning. This necessitated an inordinate amount of time be spent studying books, google scholar and visiting various museums to ensure every detail be as accurate as possible. Moreover, due to the deliverable necessitating a high resolution animation, I needed to make the barge fully engine riggable and modular without sacrificing model cohesion or accuracy.
