Joseph Stalin - PBR - Albania Heritage

Joseph Stalin rose to power as General Secretary of the Communist Party in Russia, after the death of Vladimir Lenin. Stalin forced rapid industrialization and the collectivization of agricultural land. The process was very effective but mainly because of the excessive use of force against opposants of the collectivization. His Red Army made a big part of the liberation of Europe. When the Germans menaced Moscow in the winter of 1941, he remained in the threatened capital, helping to organize a great counter-offensive. The Battle of Stalingrad (in the following winter) and the Battle of Kursk (summer of 1943) were also won by the Soviet Army under Stalin’s supreme direction. It turned the tide of invasion against the retreating Germans, who capitulated in May 1945. This statue is one of the last remaining of Stalin in Europe, located in Tirana, capital of Albania. - retopologized under 50k of polys - 8k PBR files (Albedo, normal, roughness, metalic, AO) - reality capture https://youtu.be/uqFx4fdOgHU
