Hello! I am currently in the process of 3d-modeling the W.H.A.L.E. for a good friend of mine. He has been searching for a NIB for 20 years and can't afford a real one (eBay has one for $7500), so I decided to surprise him with a reproduction.
I don't have one for reference, so I have been going off of product photos, diagrams, and photos I found on eBay and such of the various parts. It has taken me about 10 months on-and-off to get this far (still learning Fusion360!). It is as close to the original I can possibly make it, except for the rear propeller shrouds. I have thickened them up to avoid them breaking. Tasks left include: -Water Sled UPDATE 10/27/22 -Finished the Motorcycle. Just the sled left. Last edited by Sandman0077; 10-27-2022 at 05:32 PM.. |

I planned on listing the files on my Cults3d page for $50~. A fully-finished one? I have no idea haha. Probably too much for people to pay unless it's a custom commissioned paint job/theme.
