Well, if you can wait a month or two, I've got plans to make vehicle blueprints made in the same style as the filecards/images I've been previewing. They're all based on real-world vehicles, and I'm guessing most of the vehicles I based them on are available in the 3D Warehouse in one form or another.

I tended to identify with the Asian-Austronesian Joes and Cobras (I was born and spent my childhood in the Philippines, my paternal grandfather's family is from Fujian province in mainland China). I also had a bias for the Navy guys since I have an uncle who used to serve in the United States Navy (he's a liaison for USSOCOM now). This made Torpedo a no-brainer as my favourite, since he had elements of all three: he's Austronesian (being native Hawaiian), he has ties to both Philippine and Chinese culture (he's an expert in the use of the
bali song
-- the Philippine butterfly knife -- and he's a
wushu
practitioner), and he's in the Navy. Three for three.
