I need a 3d model of a whale skeleton for a current project,
does anyone know where I can find one, I could not see any over at turbosquid.
Any whale will do, pod- fin- etc....

Thanks.

I can only tell where you can see a real one up close.

www.meeresmuseum.de

And it's not even far away from Hamburg.

The standard 3d-model shops don't provide it. Sorry

Funny that, we are actually doing work on this project...
for the upcoming ozeaneum.

We have access to scanned 3d models of whales, but not of whale skeletons.
Which we also need....
Thanks though

There's lots on the net. I did a Google search and got quite a few.

After looking at a whale skull, I don't think I would have ever came up with what a whale actually looks like. Their skulls look like the creatures from Tremors!

Bob, can you point me to some links to 3d models of whales, this would be most appreciated.

You might ask this guy if he'sll part with his, or at least give you some modeling tips: http://rich99.com/modeling.htm

thanks for the link, hopefully it works out.
Modeling is not an option, the deadline is quite tight.

Moka,

Did you ever find a whale skeleton? I need one, too, for a project, preferably in either .3ds or .obj. Let me know if you had any luck…

Leadnut, would you mind posting a link? I don't see a whale skeleton on Turbo Squid. Thanks!
