Windmill Scan - Moulin des aigremonts

sketchfab

Photogrammetry of an authentic French windmill built in 1848 and situated in Bléré. The miller's primary occupation was grain grinding, yet he was also a wine-grower due to the region's renowned wine production. As a result, the windmill served as both a mill and a cellar, known as a "moulin cavier" in French. Les Amis du Moulin des Aigremonts Association manages the windmill's tourist and cultural promotion. The windmill remains functional and is open to visitors.

Harsh weather conditions made it a relief that the results turned out well. The included textures comprise 16k diffuse and normal map data. However, I reduced quality to accommodate maximum upload size; if you require higher-quality assets, please contact me. I personally recreated the top section of the stone structure since adequate photography proved elusive.
