“[T]o read was precisely to enter another world, which was not the reader’s own, and come back refreshed, ready to bear with equanimity the injustices and frustrations of this one. Reading was balm, amusement―not incitement.” —Susan Sontag, The Volcano Lover: A Romance

Département : 34 - HÉRAULT Les fortifications médiévales prennent des formes différentes. Je vous ai déjà montré un pont fortifié, une chapelle avec bretèche, des églises avec hourds, des cimetières fortifiés et bien sur des ruines de châteaux forts....
A collection of images of abandoned WW2 German fortifications in The Netherlands, Belgium and France.
Romans were known to have great strength in military combat. One of the ways they were so successful in the field of battle was the ability of their soldiers to rapidly set up defensive structures. No guarantee that this is an entirely accurate representation; I can't remember how much research I did before building. This is a model that I built a long a time ago but never got around to posting it. I think I got the idea to build this while listening to an Hardcore History episode of Julius Caesar in Gaul by Dan Carlin. I have a couple of more builds that I will be posting soon; one being new and the other I built for Brickfair VA 2018.

Fortifications - Fort Pocahontas
Fortifications were a very important part of warfare because they provided safety to the lord, his family, and his servants. They provided refuge from armies too large to face in open battle. The ability of the heavy cavalry to dominate a battle on an open field was useless against fortifications. Building siege engines was a time-consuming process, and could seldom be effectively done without preparations before the campaign. Many sieges could take months, if not years, to weaken or demoralize the defenders sufficiently. Fortifications were an excellent means of ensuring that the elite could not be easily dislodged from their lands.

This Kit was created to build fortifications around Mycenaen setups. This kit was often your first contact with Mycenaen civilisation so it has to be massive, archaic and decayed. I made those materials from scratch, identifiying the needs and budget first, then creating all the Sculpts in Substance Designer. The final material layering was made in Painter, using an in house Bank Material and Tools. During the Assassin's Creed Odyssey production I was Texture Artist, at first I helped to create the Architectural Workflow where Modelers needs and Texture Artists constraints were synchronized. I also helped along the production to build in game materials, make follow up with in house or external artists and some Substance or Art related trainings.
