You will need rhino 3.0 or lightwave to assemble these models.

I have problems navigating this site - could you please point me where exactly can I find model like this one to grab ?

When Tucan-Tiki says "assemble", he's not kidding ....

HA! Excellent LD. Nice link Tucan-Tiki.

Any chance of someone assembling them for those of us who can't? Thanks, Marque

Why do you have to download the parts seperately?

Vilian, use the little pictures at the top of the page to select the model you want. If you don't want to use the dxf version and don't have LightWave, PoseRay imported the one I downloaded--couple of texture warnings but it looks OK. I haven't triex to export it to obj so I don't know if the native LW texture will come through. This would probably be great for crash scenes :-)

PoseRay rules! I imported the first part (Lightwave .lwo)and then used 'Merge Model' to import each of the remaining parts. Everything comes in already positioned. The missing texture map mentioned above was in the mirror.zip file. I Exported to .obj and then imported and rendered in Poser 4. The front fender is kinda funky, probably Poser's smoothing which I think can be fixed in PoseRay itself or UVMapper. You may be able to select all the parts and import in PoseRay at once. Mine crashed trying this but I have a low memory system. Now off to try one of the cars :-) Note: Tucan-Tiki mentions 3DS. I only saw .lwo and .dxf versions. On the site they show an example of importing .lwo into Shade for those who have it.

OK I am getting carried away here. The car morphed into Asimo, the Honda Robot. Since these things are already divided up it might be fairly easy for someone to Poserize them. POVRay HDRI render pasted onto a background as an afterthought. The robot is in .obj format uvmapped so there may indeed be some .3DS files there--havent run across any though. Loading all the files at once in PoseRay does work for me on the smaller files.

The CAR morphed into the robot? :blink: I just saw a broken-down car morph into a robot and hitchhike to the nearest town with a service station.

LOL! My intention to DL a car next morphed into getting Asimo instead of course :-) That is a great idea though. In the 50s they had card that you could reconfigure into planes or boats. Maybe the Civic can morph into (was it Claudet Colbert?) and stick out a shapely robotic leg to catch a lift. I wish more companies would make 3D models of their products available.
