Relief of Ashurnasirpal II

3D ModelNoAI

Relief of Ashurnasirpal II, ruler of the Assyrian Empire around 870 BC, as he makes an offering to the gods. This stela can be found near the entrance of the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge.

Photogrammetry based on a suboptimal March 2017 dataset of 28 x 12MP photos. Shot handheld (OIS) at 1/20s, f4.5, at 15 mm on a 1/2.3” CMOS sensor at ISO 2000. Despite the heavy noise reduction, I’m quite happy with the result. Reduced mesh from 376k to 11 vertices. 4k PBR texures.

I also experimented with transparency and refraction effects on the backside.
