Powerful and beautiful work that shows what forge3d can do!

Strongmen cry too: The effect of aerial bombing on voting for the incumbent in competitive autocracies Abstract. How does exposure to aerial bombing influence voting for the target country’s leadership? Do voters tend to punish incumbents for policy failure?

The 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia decreased Mr Milosevic's regime’s vote-share in Serbian local elections by 3% in bombed municipalities, estimates @milos-makes-maps.bsky.social in his JPR article. That's on top of national-level effects present in undamaged municipalities as well.

Love it! Thank you for putting my tutorial to good use and for tagging me!

Lol, literally every programming language can provide a view of a scene you are trying to capture and has debugging. Not sure what you are trying to argue

In this project "only code" means no GUI modeling (e.g., no CityEngine/Blender), just data transformed through a scripted pipeline to create a beautiful 3D city model. My video is about reproducibility anyone can rerun.

*Steve, apologies for the typo @stevetornes.bsky.social

Rayrender can do it. Not showing it in this tutorial though

I love how it looks Stebe! Awesome work and thank you for bringing my tutorial to life!

Beautiful and informative map 🇨🇭

A detailed thematic map of Switzerland visualizing 2020 population distribution using a logarithmic color scale over a shaded relief background. Bright orange and yellow tones indicate high population density areas like Zurich, Geneva, and Basel, while purple and black tones highlight sparsely populated alpine regions. The map includes a north arrow, population legend, and scale bar (80 km). Elevation is represented through 3D hillshading derived from SRTM data. Data sources: WorldPop 100m constrained grid (2020); SRTM via the elevatr R package. Map design: Milos Popovic (YouTube: Milos Makes Maps).
