This model is created with 2-foot contour lines from maps of Stalingrad from the 1930’s and 1940’s and I have even fashioned the Volga river bottom from navigational charts I located from same period. There are 2,386 buildings fashioned in this model and this area reflects about 10% of the overall 3D project. All the modeling and colorization was created with AutoCAD, 3D Studio Max and Adobe Photoshop.
