Subject: looking for good acupuncture props

Hi. I need to do a series of acupuncture illustrations and am wondering what kind of props may be available? Like acupunture needles, diagrams, etc.

Any and all help greatly appreciated!!

For diagrams any of these images could just be put on a simple plane.

And couldn't a pin be easily made from two basic primitives? All you need is a cylinder and a ball, right?

 

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.

Thanks for the reply.

You may be right about the pins. But I'm not that familiar with the subject. The pics I've seen so far look like two cylinders though ... one thicker and one thinner. I'd fake it except that it looks like there will be a close up or two.

Guess I've got some research to do, but thanks again.

heres a very quick acupuncture needle. it has a simple bend morph.

its UV mapped so if you want to do the wire ribbing on the stem you can create a simple bump map for it.

hope it helps.
