Asset Overview

**"Paix et Liberté ne sont jamais acquises"** ![](https://i.imgur.com/x4iIJAq.jpg) This commemorative stela, located in [Santec](https://goo.gl/maps/4e7ppJfuPiQ2) (France), was raised in honor of the 128 sailors who lost ther life aboard the [HMCS Athabaskan](https://goo.gl/Z6CzRc) in the night of April 19th, 1944. The Athabaskan was a canadian destroyer which was sunk by the [German torpedo boat T24](https://goo.gl/5ESxwy) during an interception mission in the English Channel, and now lies at 90m depth. If you are curious about the fate of this ship, you'll find more interesting information [here](https://goo.gl/y6TynL) and [there](https://goo.gl/6P1D1v). The scan was created from 96 pictures taken with a Canon Eos-1100D, processed with Colmap and OpenMVS, and re-textured and optimized to a lower resolution (~15k triangles) with Blender and [BakeMyScan](http://bakemyscan.org). ![](https://i.imgur.com/wz8oKE4.jpg)
