@lexicolopolis Brilliant solution for the paddles. Something that irked me about the concept art was that was water tipping out of the front facing buckets, but to my mind that could only happen with a “water over” paddle wheel and not the “water under” wheel as shown in the art. Your decision to make the paddles into boxes solves both the mechanics and the artwork in one fell swoop. We can now say that rather than having water tipping out of a full bucket, the water is instead pouring off the top of a paddle box on its way through a full rotation. @theluthier
Great work!
