Windmill Scan - Moulin des aigremonts

Photogrammetry of an authentic french windmill, constructed in 1848 and located in the town of Bléré.

Even if its main function was to grind grain, the miller was also a wine-growner (the area is very famous for it). This is why the windmill was a mill but also a cellar (moulin cavier, in french).

The tourist and cultural promotion of the windmill is run by Les Amis du Moulin des Aigremonts Association.

It’s still functionnal ! Open for visit, more information at : https://www.moulindesaigremonts.com

About the scan itself :

I only took pictures from ground, more than 900 actually and without tripod. No drone used. Weather was REALLY cold so I was glad the result was good !

16k Textures included are : diffuse + normal map. I had to reduce quality to fit the max upload size but you can contact me to get the originals if you want to.

The top of the stone construction, I made it by myself since I could not get pictures of it.
