Top Down View of WW1 Buildings?
« on: November 09, 2023, 03:31:09 PM »
Anyone got a source of photos or pixel art top down views of buildings/structures?  I'm looking for something I can print out to use as objectives when bombing or observation missions.

I did find a few pixel art images I downloaded and played around with but it's not quite what I'm after...plus my abilities to manipulate the program I'm using is far from adequate, hence the "not quite what I'm after" blurb.  Sorry, had to convert my ODG file to a jpeg:

Recon photos tended to be taken from pretty high up, so not much individual building detail is available (not online, anyway). However, if they're just intended as objective markers, then perhaps some period aerial photographs might give you a certain WW1 ambience?

Google image search for WW1 recon photos

Thanks Fitz!!!  I downloaded a few photos last night from a search on Google, but haven't used them yet.

I keep forgetting everything back then was in it's infancy, aircraft and aerial combat photography.  I'd rather have been the pilot than the observer  :o
