Well..what happened there?...It must be 8 months since I last updated this blog. Blimey. Anyway...I'm back on track and I've added a few more instruments to the 'Command Centre' mock-up (pictured above) and the design is really starting to take shape. I made some sketches of cockpit and control panels during a recent visit to the Imperial War Museum and developed the drawings in Adobe Illustrator. At the moment I am working on the design for a classic radar screen image - the kind you see in war films where the submarine radar operator stares anxiously at a line that sweeps round a circular green screen. Trying to make sense of the 'green porridge' I think they call it. How to make it stand out?...green fluorescent paint? Luminous? Can you get luminous paint in aerosol spray? Submarines, radar and luminous paint..now that's going to send my mind off on another thousand tangents...
