Been trying to make my own or source a model for a long time so I can mess around with custom ideas and see how they would work, etc. The dimensions seem to be very accurate, so if I can get it to accurate real-world scale I can actually use the dimensions of the model parts to rough out parts for fabrication. I came across this model from an Arma II mod pack, done by a group of Swedish players. I am now modifying the model to reflect my C303, and beginning to texture it as close as I can.
It is really fun to be able to move around this in 3D Studio Max.
Finally got a 3D model of the C303

That's awesome!
You going to use that so you can mock up ideas and see how they look?

Re: Finally got a 3D model of the C303
Exactly that. This will allow me to quickly explore multiple ideas for visual and structural changes or repairs I need to make. I work in 3D, so this is something I have also started to incorporate when possible for things I make in the real world if it solves some problem or helps the workflow. I can do those things without it, but having that tool allows me to do more, like try a lot more ideas, in the same amount of time and with often less work in the final production of the idea. Plus, I have no idea what I am doing so this provides me a safe approach to learning the problems and hopefully recognize a few mistakes before I break out the torch and grinder. SCIENCE!
Additionally, I will upload the final textured version to a virtual environment called SecondLife, where I can script it with animations and physics so it will be driveable by my avatar on my island there.

Even though my Hafi is in a 1000+ pieces I drive every day!

Better with friends! Pinz too The model you have is excellent and would be cool to have for both a Pinz and Hafi!
Cheers,
Dan

Re: Finally got a 3D model of the C303
Wow, I use my computer for email and Google searches. I once got an Xbox 360 free with the purchase of an iphone. I used it to watch Netflix. I am so amazed when I see stuff like this, it just proves how much of a redneck I am....

That's interesting since my brother is actually in the credits of that game as a 3d modeler; he designed the models for a lot of the guns in that game. At the time, I believe he was the only American working for them on that project.
