Reminds me of an old book I had about 3d modelling, that was showing some pictures of various things like an underwater scene, a space satellite or rocket and more.

I think the author of the book I have in mind was using form·Z

Tried to find the book online, but I don’t have the book here so it’s difficult to remember exactly.

Here are some books with similar level of detail in their cover art to the detail of that video and to the book I am thinking of.

It’s neat in its own way.
