max pennsylvanian pennsylvania earth - Pennsylvanian Earth by MichaelTaylor3D

This model is intended for those who need nothing less then the highest photorealism for cinema quality renders.

The Pennsylvanian is, in the ICS geologic timescale, the younger of two subperiods (or upper of two subsystems) of the Carboniferous Period. It lasted from roughly 318.1± 1.3 to 299± 0.8 Ma (million years ago). As with most other geochronologic units, the rock beds that define the Pennsylvanian are well identified, but the exact date of the start and end are uncertain by a few million years. The Pennsylvanian is named after the American state of Pennsylvania, where rocks with this age are widespread.

This is a scientifically accurate rendering of the earth millions of years ago in the Pennsylvanian period . Notice that the continents are of a different shape then they appear today. The shape of the continents is what scientist believe they looked like during this time frame.

It is the best choice available for cinema quality renders of the Pennsylvanian Period and other visualizations depicting continental shift.

The maps (8000x4000) are so detailed, you can see natural rivers and lakes throughout the continents. These rivers and lakes are procedurally placed using a new method I developed so they are very natural looking and they span throughout the entire high resolution image. The maps look as if they were from a satellite looking down on the earth during that time period.

The Pennsylvanian Maps presented in this model are a one of a kind. You will never see such a high detailed texture maps anywhere else.
