The Shard Baby's diagram thread

The Shard Baby · December 19th, 2011, 08:23 AM

I'm bringing back the forum- I will recover this post to the best of my abilities:
When I was three years old I found love in London and it's landmarks.
When I was four I started using Microsoft Paint 1995.
When I was seven I started using Microsoft Paint 2003.
When I was eight I found Shard London Bridge Tower, 'The Shard of Glass'.
When I was nine I drew my first skyscraper 'diagram', the Empire State Building.
When I was eleven I started following London Bridge Tower 'The Shard of Glass' construction.
When I was eleven I found skyscrapercity.
When I was twelve I drew the first of my famous Shard diagram.
When I was still twelve I made my first diagram time-lapse.
When I was thirteen I met Roger Stirk Harbour + Partners.
Now I'm fourteen I have met construction managers, 'professional skyscraper photographers', post skyscraper diagram updates nearly every week, what's next for me...possibly my dreams to be the architect of the world's tallest building.

ALL HAIL, SHARD BABY

REPEAT WITH ME, ALL HAIL...

CharlieP · December 19th, 2011, 11:51 AM

Awesome job, TSB!

Gavrosh · December 19th, 2011, 01:59 PM

TSB, definitely get yourself acquainted with Sketchup. Speak to pompeyfan, who seems to be the man on that app.

Officer Dibble · December 19th, 2011, 02:23 PM

Great stuff Shard Baby.

***Medo*** · December 19th, 2011, 06:02 PM

Keep up the good work.

Frankus Maximus · December 19th, 2011, 06:09 PM

Your diagrams are always appreciated! Who knows what's next for TSB?

CharlieP · December 19th, 2011, 11:37 PM

Lloyd's, TSB?

nukey · December 20th, 2011, 08:57 AM

Baby Shard you rock... I really appreciate your drawings on the various threads...

I remember my passion for architecture developed through drawing diags like these back in good old microsoft 'paint', one pixel at a time many years ago... good days

Pretty sure it's just 'Lloyds', as there is no apostrophe between the 'd' and the 's' (check their website).

Do I get a Pilchard Point?

Hmm! You sounded like you were talking about Lloyds TSB, not the Lloyd's Building.

Difference.

Darloeye · December 23rd, 2011, 12:06 AM

Well Done. I young lad too

Willrocks10 · December 23rd, 2011, 11:58 PM

For someone who is the same age as me and has had an intrest in skyscrapers (I became intrested in them when I was about 9 aswell) I wish I was as good as you.

P.S how come you got to visit the Leadenhall Building?

P.S.S My friend's Dad had a major role in the building of the Heron Tower and the Leadenhall Building!

The Shard Baby · December 26th, 2011, 07:56 AM

The construction manager, David Hiddleston, saw me with my diagram, talking to some traffic marshals and brought me to see Roger Stirk Harbour + Partners to show them my diagrams.
They then brought me on to site
