What a handsome figure of a dragon. No wonder I fall madly in love with the Alani Dragon now, the avatar, it's a gorgeous dragon picture.

Often do not have full information about the objects. Reconstruction and prepare for a Roman tower. There are basics, but not how he looked up. So I prepared a few versions.
 
 
 
 
And so it seems anyway today.
 
 
The tower is near Burgas in Bulgaria. Town name derives from this Roman burg.

Over the last time I have tried to reconstruct some early medievel cities myself for a computer game. Its nothing professional or anything, but I think using some programs I could get results similar to what is shown in some of these posts.
If some of you are interested in trying to get a grip of working on 3d projections you could try a program called google sketchup. There is a free version which is quite easy to use and would allow all the more basic constructions.

What opuslola wrote about the imagination is actually true. I noticed myself that in many cases there are just no sources on the buildings. This is especially difficult with wooden buildings if there are only few leftovers. So in many cases it is necessary to.... take inspiration from similar better researched sites of the same culture and period or just scamp around a lot Embarrassed

It could be compared to the face-reconstructions they create for crime investigations, you never know exactly what it looked like and have to try to get it into the right shape by studying your sources and making up what is necessary.

Yeah, something happened to my old account so I made this new one.

Though I do kind of prefer my new name to the old one.

How exactly do they know if they have the architecture right, and also what kind of program do they use. It seems like their using a crappy block system instead of a full build system.

Yes, the imagination is a wonderful thing! It was from a morass of broken bricks that the city of Babylon was identified, and later the rebuilding of this imagination began.

Just wonderful! But, is any of it real, or is most of it, mere imagination?

Ron

Nice work. This kinda stuff is fascinating for me as I remain a basic computer guy. And would probably find i have the talent of a beetle for doing stuff like that.
 
Thanks
