Is that Artisan?

Excellent model!

And is that a render? If so, wow!

No

It is, I unwrapped mesh in WrapR then used Substance Painter Tri-Planar projection to apply texture.

The texture is doing most of the work to be honest.

It's bloody good. I take it you cannot hint at the extension you mention. Either way it looks great.

Which render engine did you use?

Blender Cycles do I could use displacement.

Photogrametry?

Photogrametry?

I went to Easter Island, took photos and fed the results to SketchUp? I wish it was true. But no, its not photogrammetry.

This is a procedural texture applied to the mesh. The mesh was made in SketchUp. Added the retopologised model to the shop for anyone that feels like having some fun with it.
