Russian industrial era fortifications?

[Kyriakos]

Currently i am creating a ww1 russian set and i was wondering what the russian fortifications of that era looked like. Does anyone here know?

Not very helpful, but here's a picture of the grounds at Novogeorgievsk:



In general, First World War fortresses were large concrete-and-steel complexes, fairly low to the ground, and not all that dissimilar across states. If you got a reasonable image of Liège, it would probably work for a Russian WWI fortress.

this is the citadel of Modlin (in Poland). It was originally built by Napoleon, but rebuilt as one of the most important russian fortresses on its western borders

You aren't seriously telling this dates from ww1 period?

It dates from second half of XIX century. I'm not sure if many fortresses were built by Russians DURING the war...

It looks terribly anachronistic...
I can offer pictures of Морская Крепость имени Императора Петра Великого, a system of naval fortresses and coastal batteries built around Gulf of Finland between 1912-1918.
