"If the lions drink, London will sink" For the first time two of the bronze lions of the Thames embankment are no longer above the river. They are now incorporated in the new Bazalgette Embankment at Blackfriars. This makes them touchable and scannable. 3D: skfb.ly/pLpLn

Getting poor results with this so far. Below screenshot from RealityScan shows meshed and textured import of lidar from the Raven. The lidar is quite low quality/resolution and the imported cameras are baked from the lidar showing "ghosting" errors like this April Tag.

The first day of dev production on my new game. Adapted from my illustrated industrial folk horror novel “Coal Face - The devil in the smoke.” The art style is in keeping with the book and the era of the setting. Lots of original gameplay surprises to come! The journey begins. More news to come!

Have bought a new 3DMAKERPRO Raven handheld lidar scanner. Insta360 attachment for improving gaussian splatting. Will attempt to combine with usual photogrammetry photos to see if it helps with plainer interior locations.

During November 2025, we shared some of our recent work at Chartwell. This included the creation of two 3D models by @artfletch.bsky.social & some very distinctive artefacts found by the Garden team - three metal disks, labelled 'Pol Roger &Co' found in a disused drain 🍾🥂 skfb.ly/pDXVw #archaeology
A small metal disk on a tape measure for scale, labelled 'Pol Roger'. Pol Roger champagne was one of Sir Winston's favourite drinks and he is known to have regularly ordered cases from the early 1900s onwards. The metal disks we have found were placed on the necks of the champagne bottles.Screenshot of the 3D model of the Study at Chartwell, showing the space lit with a hanging light fixture, the beams of the medival roof with a banner hanging from them, paintings on the walls, bookshelves and armchairs and desks
