This all feels so fresh I may just need to launch Windows Writer and blog about it on my Blogger page.
@MichaelPetch OoOoooo I hadn't found SCW so I'm super glad you mentioned that!
If you haven't done the searching yet, here is the list of VFX folks I found, too: https://www.artofvfx.com/the-peripheral/
Was there a specific model that made you think of SCW? Just curious, as your eye is likely pretty keyed in.

@imwiththecats So, I did recognise The Winged Victory of Samothrace on the right hand side of Trafalgar Square.
Scan the World model here: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-winged-victory-of-samothrace-2073
Famed as being the greatest masterpiece in Hellenistic art, this marble sculpture made in the 2nd Century BC depicts the Greek goddess Nike. Also called Nike of Samothrace this sculpture is on permanent display at the Louvre standing majestically at 2.4 metres high. What makes this sculpture iconic is its highly detailed wings and intricately sculpted fabric; also the fact that it is missing the head and arms is arguably what makes the sculpture so fascinating.

Athena Pallas looming over Regent Street. Maybe waiting for the Apple Store to open?
Model: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-athena-pallas-giustiniani-52556
Digitised with an Artec Eva. The Athena Pallas Giustiniani (Or Giustiniani Minerva) is an Antonine Roman marble copy of a Greek sculpture of the Pallas Athena, of the late fifth-early fourth century BC. The sculpture was probably a cult image rather than a decorative cultural trophy. The serpent at Athena's right foot recalls the archaic myth of Ericthonius in his serpent form. The forearms are restorations, as are the spear and the sphinx upon the goddess's Corinthian helmet. This scan is of a cast housed at The SMK's Royal Cast Collection, which was cast from the Museo Ciaramonti (ORIG 195). | Download free and paid 3D printable STL files
Looks like David is chilling in Woolwich on the right and Doryphoros catching some rays back in the square mile on the left.

(Thanks Jon for help with the IDs if you see this!)
The Doryphoros (The Spear Bearer) represents the strict, classical ideal of maleness. Here we find a serene, harmonious, muscular soldier ready for battle. The line above the shoulder and the line above the hip point in different directions: this is a “contrapposto” position; the sculpture is in movement. The original was created by Polyclitus, who wrote a treatise on the correct proportions of a canonical work, and his sculptures were copied in great numbers. | Download free and paid 3D printable STL files
