CORONAVIRUS (2019-nCoV) COVID-19

CORONAVIRUS (2019-nCoV) COVID-19
3D model development and PBR materials for real-time visualization. 
Conceptual data-based artistic representation. Real Size: 100 nm.
As a brief exercise with Autodesk 3DS Max, I decided to do personal research for the development of this 3D model of the new coronavirus 2019-nCoV. It is worth to note that this is the first 3d model that currently exists about this virus and its complete structure description. All electron microscope images are black and white, the approximation to the original colors are related to the type of molecular structure, so all images representing viruses or bacteria that have color "will always be artistic interpretations" .
CORONAVIRUS (2019-nCoV) Interactive 3D Model
Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds that include diarrhea in cows and pigs, and upper respiratory disease in chickens. In humans, the virus causes respiratory infections, which are often mild, but are potentially lethal. There are no vaccines or antiviral drugs that are approved for prevention or treatment.

The "2019-nCoV" still don't have it in NCBI database, but they share the same MERS-CoV structure.

Acknowledgment: Special thanks to Dr. Pedro J. Romero for his contribution to this 3D model development.

[Update Feb 11, 2020] Covid-19: The new coronavirus disease now officially has a name.
