Bletchley Park - Buckinghamshire

Almost everyone will know the history of Bletchley Park Mansion. Every minute drawing this old lady was a pleasure, they don't build em like this anymore!! Yes I know the two statues look like begging rabbits, organic modeling ain't my forte I guess.

"Cryptologic bomb" maybe?

I like it John the glazing in the last one makes it "pop" along with the contrast in the image.

Sorry I should have said "bombe.". Inside Bletchley Park was a large mechanical computer called the "bombe." The Bombe was used to decipher the German "Enigma" code. Because it was mechanical it could not be stopped in the precise position that a solution was found, so the Bombe sounded a bell. The wind down time of the bombe was known, so the time of the bell was noted and the machine was run in reverse for the proper time to get it near the solution. Then it was slowly hand cranked until the bell again revealed the precise configuration of the solution. When I worked as the editor of the Hitachi Data Systems customer magazine I developed articles on both early computers and the use of computers in cryptography and had a chance to consult with David Kahn the author of the "Code Breakers." With this stuff stuck in my mind, I had a special interest in see this skillful rendering of Bletchley Park.

And I almost forgot, some nine thousand people worked in temporary wooden barracks situated in the Park at the height of the war. Could you please render all of those buildings too?

Well done again!
