(WIP) C40-8W updated 5/14/2012

Unread postby eyein12 » Fri Nov 18, 2011 11:44 pm

Hello,

So i started my c40-8 model. It is very very early into building it. I am using sketchup and 3dsmax to render and will make it look puuurty!

Eventually I will take critiques so i can get this as accurate as possible. This time an older GE will make it in the game!

Will keep everyone posted.

Can't wait to give it a try.

So, what can we expect that it will be?
