This is the model of HMS Thunderchild that I built for Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds project, during the R&D phase of production at the end of 2004.

The model is shown here sporting the basic materials I applied to demonstrate the final look, although final texturing was not done by me for this model.

The design was based heavily on the cover artwork for the original CD, and further detailing was inspired by the Royal Navy's Formidable class battleships.

I'm absolutley amazed at the quality of the rendered image, and its detail. I teach graphic illustration at a High School in Larbert, and would like to use this image if its okay with you. I also am a keen modelmaker and have attempted several times to make a model of the thunderchild, but have never been able to. With your permission I'd like to use this rendering as a basis for another attempt.

Kindest Rgards
