    I've just updated them with a few new pieces, e.g. there's a new
    Archimedes backdrop.

    It's not Acorn related but I've added a page with some logos too: http://www.davespace.co.uk/doodles/logos.html

    Nice one Dave - pity there's not a version of Blender for RISC OS!

    Agreed. They're brilliant.

    I'll tell you what would be really useful - a virtual background for
    Zoom.us. They'd would be almost the same but with the main object placed
    over to one side (unless you want a cog wheel halo) and 16:9 aspect ratio.

    As someone who owned an Acorn Electron back in the day, that particular backdrop really made me smile. :)

    Ace! :-)

    I've now put a couple of animations up on YouTube. First is the Acorn
    logo spinning around <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVC9xYEEkt8> and
    second is a fly past of the RISC OS 3 welcome banner <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqGFNqfGr-U>.

    Me too. It might of been late and underpowered compared to the Beeb, but
    it was my first computer and making software which ran fast enough on it
    helped me become a better programmer.

    I've now animated the Electron backdrop and given it some moody synth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSa6zL9iSKY

    I'm not generally a lover of synthesised music tracks but this one
    works well. Highlighting of "acorn electron" and "oaknut" synchronised
    with a change in the music is excellent.
