Wow looks amazing! Is this made from real data or an artist's concept?

Ok I haven't payed attention if it was in the right subforum, but it probably was in recent posts at least for me, otherwise I hadn't seen it :eh:

a very early heightmap to wrap around the Deimos mesh
Image

this was used on the mesh and it is a very early rework of the mesh
the east half is very low res images

the deimos mesh was created from the "m2deimos.tab" shapefile
in "EAR_A_5_DDR_SHAPE_MODELS_V2_1"
