The Panzerkampfwagen IV (Pz.Kpfw. IV), commonly known as the Panzer IV, was a German medium tank developed in the late 1930s and used extensively during the Second World War. Its ordnance inventory designation was Sd.Kfz. 161.
Designed as an HE support tank, the Panzer IV was not intended to engage enemy armor—that role being allocated to the Panzer III. However, with the inadequacy of the Panzer III becoming apparent and in the face of Soviet T-34 tanks.

[Original scan](https://skfb.ly/6suDz) from @ariosgeo, and inspiration from [Il Cristo degli Abissi](https://goo.gl/RU5PtJ), a submerged statue of Jesus in Italy.

**Modeling**:

* The scan was remeshed with [mmgs](http://mmgtools.org) from 500k verts to 7k, keeping the face and hands at a higher resolution.
* The ocean surface and ground were created with blender's ocean modifier.
* Light shafts are simply a randomized array of elongated planes.
* The fish is a lowpoly model ( a 30s model ).
* A particle system was created for fish instances, with force fields applied (boids physics, vortex, attraction force and collision on the statue)

**Texturing/lighting**:

* Mix of concrete and coral on the statue
* Sand on the ground
* Nothing on the sea surface
* Radial opacity for ground and surface
* Voronoi textures baked as emission on the statue and the ground, to simulate the light deformation through water
* Lots of color processing

The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is a four-engine heavy bomber developed in the 1930s for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC). Competing against Douglas and Martin for a contract to build 200 bombers, the Boeing entry outperformed both competitors and exceeded the air corps’ performance specifications (Sources Wikipiedia)

This diorama is designed to create feelings of nostalgia and transport viewers back to the era of elegant and adventurous travel. The diorama features detailed leather seats, wooden panels, a small table with various vintage travel props such as a Rolleiflex camera, an antique pocket watch, a weathered travel journal, a folded map, and a classic red suitcase placed on a seat. The cabin is animated to simulate the train moving, with a window displaying the passing landscape of the Alps. The primary goal was to create an authentic and engaging 3D environment that highlights the aesthetics of the 1930s travel experience.

The Douglas DC-3 is a fixed-wing propeller-driven airliner. Its cruise speed (207 mph or 333 km/h) and range (1,500 mi or 2,400 km) revolutionized air transport in the 1930s and 1940s. Its lasting effect on the airline industry and World War II makes it one of the most significant transport aircraft ever made. (source Wikipedia)

Ford-Vairogs was a Latvian car manufacturing plant, created as a partnership between the vehicle builder Vairogs and Ford Copenhagen, creating Ford’s Latvia branch. They made vehicles in the 1930s and closed down in 1940 when the second World War reached Latvia.

This new updated version is a re-work of my older model.

Located in the south east corner of the Tower of London.

From the information board: "This tower is part of Henry III's late 1230s curtain wall, which rings the castle... this tower overlooked the river. Archers could shoot arrows through the arrow-loops in this room. Upstairs was a comfortable chamber with a huge fireplace and decorative window. The tower's exterior windows were restored in 1857-8."

This helmet features decorative grooves on the skull and the visor has been extended into a beak.

As late as in 1866, the helmet was thought to have belonged to King Magnus Ladulås (dead in 1290) and was on display in the Riddarholmen Church together with a suit of armour consisting of unrelated parts.

However, King Magnus would never have come across the helmet which was made in Germany in the 1530s.

The Cadillac Series 70 (models 70 and 75) is a full-size V8-powered series of cars that were produced by Cadillac from the 1930s to the 1980s. It replaced the 1935 355E as the company's mainstream car just as the much less expensive Series 60 was introduced. The Series 72 and 67 were similar to the Series 75 but the 72 and 67 were produced on a slightly shorter and longer wheelbase respectively. The Series 72 was only produced in 1940 and the Series 67 was only produced in 1941 and 1942. For much of the postwar era, it was the top-of-the-line Cadillac, and was Cadillac's factory-built limousine offering.

Production of the short wheelbase Series 70 ceased in 1938, but reappeared briefly as the relatively expensive Series 70 Eldorado Brougham 4-door hardtop from 1957 to 1958, while the long wheelbase Series 75 made a final appearance in the 1987 model year.

The railway signal box "Bt", located in Bytom is one of the few preserved overhead signal boxes in Poland. It was built in the 1930s and gained its current form after a rebuilding that likely took place in the 1970s. Due to the modernization of the Bytom station, it was taken out of service in 2022. 

The building has since been renovated, but I decided to recreate it in its pre-renovation state, as it offers a great opportunity to develop my texturing skills. To achieve the best possible result, this time I decided to use a higher texel density (3px/cm instead of 1-1.5px), and I carefully recreated the peeling paint entirely by hand. Working on this model taught me not to be overly perfectionistic and to know when to say “stop” — because trust me, you could keep tweaking the details forever!

This is all that remains of *SS Rifle*, one of the earliest surviving examples of a small pre-fabricated screw steamer in the British Isles. *Rifle* was purchased by the Locheil Estate in the 1860s for use on Loch Arkaig, ferrying goods, passengers and mail between the isolated dwellings around the loch. 

As well as being a practical vessel, *Rifle* was also used for pleasure, often carrying shooting parties. 

The boat was laid-up in the 1930s, and whilst being scrapped, sank and lay buried until removed by the army after becoming a hazard to wartime vessels working from the pier. *Rifle* was blasted away from the pier, losing the bow in the process. 

Despite being submerged for over half a century, it was raised in 1990. Although in a very fragile condition, *Rifle's* propeller is a well-preserved example of an early design. 

The model was created as a part of ‘Scanning The Horizon’ 3D digitisation project.

We would like to thank [RPS Europe](http://www.rpsgroup.com) their help during this project.

[Original model from @auriea](https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/eve-dautun-a8ab38d1422040dd94d95226d341a1dc). A quick exercise for fun doing some remesh and texture baking.

[Autun Cathedral](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autun_Cathedral)

Gislebertus' Temptation of Eve (French: La Tentation d'Ève) was originally the lintel of the north door of the cathedral. It is stated that the Temptation of Eve was created around the 1130s at the same time in which the portail of the [Last Judgment](https://skfb.ly/oyTLY) and the narrative capitals were made. This large sculpture is now displayed in the Musée Rolin, Autun, France, restored in recent years.

Bofors MK-FIA L/70 anti-aircraft gun at the site of the Bunker Museum in Bruckneudorf. The 40-mm gun originated in Sweden and was developed in the 1930s. In Austria, 60 pieces were used as anti-aircraft guns from the mid-1950s. All guns have been decommissioned since 1998.

The automobile industry quickly became industrialized. While France can be considered a pioneer in automobile design, it was in the United States that this industry truly flourished. The American automotive industry, exemplified by Ford and General Motors, experienced rapid growth. Standardization, labor savings, and corporate consolidation were all factors contributing to this American prosperity. Several major American manufacturers emerged in the 1920s and 1930s: Chrysler in 1925, Pontiac in 1926, LaSalle in 1927, and Plymouth in 1928.
