: Where can I find images of ancient middle eastern cities and towns? Ancient cities and towns get recreated a lot in games but I am hoping to find some images, illustrations, composites to use

What about using googles ketchup, the 3d models used on earth, as a starting point?

Shutterstock's fantasy category has some nice images you might be able to use (or if you find a style you like you can contact the artist directly). I'd also consider navigating through a site like DeviantArt, where young artists showcase they work. Commissions are usually not that pricey.

You could also search for stock videos / footage, it's quite specific but some libraries can be huge, so it's worth a try (especially the 3D ones).

Some sites you might want to check:


iStock Video
Shutterstock Footage
Getty Images Footage
Revostock
Videoblocks (free)
3D Footage


I'd also consider asking 3D artists directly, too. Depending on the complexity, they could generate some simple images or animations for you, or point you in the right direction.
