Really quite cool to watch. They go into quite a bit of detail.

It is a slight shame the floor isn't modelled but still makes for interesting viewing.

From reading the comments the chap seems approachable to run your own alterations to the model through his system.

It would be interesting to see what the papal mod actually does with a hole cut behind the rad bulkhead. I am building a 3d printer but I doubt I can get a detailed enough model to print.

He is going through some of the other tweaks in later vids.

I wonder if the 123D applications could make a precise model. Have tried it for small objects and it looked good for those. Basically you grab a bunch of pictures from all relevant angles, send them to the main server and get a 3D model in return. Worth a try i would say,

The addition of the vented engine bay would be an interesting addition too, might smooth things out at the rear a little bit. :-k
