We`ve got the first good photogrammetry 3D model:

Brian and Oleg took 1634 photos of the aft cockpit in museum,
then Oleg used special software to generate 3D mesh. The process took around 100 hrs.

19783831 polygons in the 3D model,
3ds max scene file is around 1 gigabyte, texture is about 800 megs.

3d model screenshots:

I just quickly rendered it for fun:

This is a really great reference for 3d modeling, since all the dimensions are real we can start modeling the in-game cockpit!


Dmitry.

Awaits new news.
