[QUOTE="thorst, post: 3682067, member: 81174"] Hello, I have been at the Star Wars Identities exhibition in Cologne some days ago, and was able to take some pictures of one of my favourite ships, the Slave 1. I took them with the intention to try photogrammetry, and I was able to find some free programs to to this, which seem to work pretty well. I am using VisualSFM with MeshLab and cmpmvs to produce point clouds and a textured mesh from the pictures. I was using exclusively the pictures I took myself, to prevent any misunderstandings, you know what I mean ;). Here are some screenshots of the mesh: [IMG]http://i741.photobucket.com/albums/xx54/Herr_Bpunkt/3D/Slave1/slave1_simplified_04.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i741.photobucket.com/albums/xx54/Herr_Bpunkt/3D/Slave1/slave1_simplified_03.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i741.photobucket.com/albums/xx54/Herr_Bpunkt/3D/Slave1/slave1_simplified_05.png[/IMG] Now I am working with Rhino to draw a clean NURBS model for further steps. Aside from grave asymmetry, I found another strange thing: For absolute scale, I tried to use the body of R2D2 which was on display behind the Slave 1 and which was partially reconstructed by the software. I found the number of 19.35" for the cylindrical part of the body, and scaled the mesh accordingly. Now when I measure the body of the Slave 1, I get a length of almost exactly 26" (from the tip of the "nose" to the end of the skirt), and a width of 24.5" over the wings. However, the Chronicles list it to be 69cm times 66cm, which is 27.2" times 26". Does anybody know if the measurements given in the Chronicles book can be trusted this far? It would mean, that either the reconstruction of the R2-unit is wrong, or the measurement for it is wrong. Any help would be appreciated! Cheers, Thorsten [/QUOTE]
