Finding the 3D models

Stumbled across a really interesting tool called SketchUp from google... and also found a Firefly model in 3D I can use as reference:


Thanks Abraham Katase for this very interesting rendering. It is actually very faithful to what I have in mind when I create the real deal.

I will use and experiment with SketchUp for a while until I have a good grip on the sizes and modifications also needed.

Next I will also try to see if it can find a skp to obj converter which could let me export the data into an engineering package.

The first rule of design which is to first see if someone else had done what you want to do had paid off!!!
