3D Model

These images are from a 3D map of the Island I created, and I've been working on it since May.
I managed to import it in Google Earth and that's the reason there's written the Google logo in every image (and the NASA writing is about the photo of the ocean, of course).
Unfortunately, I cannot use personalized textures on this kind of model, so I had to create it monochromatic. And it's not very accurate too... But it's a start, I guess.
Anyway, I hope it can help someone!

Have you seen Yung23 3-d model?

Your's is very good. It must have taken a lot of work. I would love to 3-D model the island, but it would take too much time.

I already know Yung23's work! It's excellent and very accurate. But I really don't like the "other" Rousseau's map (the one with the Crater), so I'm not going to incorporate that in my model.
I don't know if mine is really good... The mountains are very "curved" (as opposed to the "sharp" one on the Island)... I will update this, though... Someday...

I agree, I don't think the "other" Rousseau map is an elevation view of the front of the island,but he did and I think it "Forced" his map. I'm almost positive that the "other" map is not the view he thinks it is. I asked him about that and his answer is that the word crater must be the same crater in the Southwest corner. I don't believe this. I don't think we have seen this view yet.
