General / Off-Topic 3D models?

[Nagual]

Hey,

Does anyone know if and where there are any downloadable 3D models of elite / elite style ships ? I know they exist as some folks have made some lovely videos using them, but short of actually managing to get in contact with those people.

I can't make my own, as my 3D modeling skills could be compared to my music skills.

Well it depends on what software you have, but to get you started, you could have a look at the Scout Mod for Pioneer, the ships folder in FFE3D or the massive bank of OXP ships that Oolite has, Griff builds really nice ones. Although detail levels will vary between the games and models, you could always tweak them, add things, remove things, fix things even and generally learn as you go.

Oh and nearly forgot, a bunch of Griff's ships were also converted for use in Freelancer.
