Maunsell Forts - AWESOME RELICS!

So here's Maunsell Forts just off the East Coast of England, nearest town is Herne Bay.
I think these are some of the coolest structures/relics i've seen in ages, I will endevour to visit them and possibly get inside for some awesome photos!



Here's Knock John Fort, equally as cool as the Maunsell Artillery Fortifications;

Doctorr Who? Concept Art

I started editing one of the photos from the Control Room, with the original intention of created a revived looking control room, fully lit/re-textured in parts/cleaned up/animated .. I succeded, but it veered off to a Dalek-ridden image (i'd found some awesome hi-res pics of Daleks).
Two versions - one as an enclosed space, light from the ceiling (perhaps the entire ceiling is some kind of light, transparent yellowy material) the other as a glass ceiling, letting in natural daylight but retaining the phosphorescent colour from internal artificial lighting.
The original picture is also included;





Here's some of my reference material;



And also, i stumbled across this visual while i was searching google for '1930 laboratory'




Battersea Power Station

So, Thursday night me and Hol were given a tour around Battersea Power Station.
First off was a brief tour of the exterior, then we were allowed inside, up a staircase within one of the 4 chimneys, and then into one of the control rooms, which had all sorts of dials, with titles like 'Hyde Base 1', 'Shutdown' and 'Exciters'.
The whole thing felt like a trip through a real life Bioshock level, was pretty awesome.
Here are 4 photoshopped pics from the night.
