what about something that looks like this?

that's about 10-30 minutes in sketchup

yeah! that's almost perfect!
could you either post it here or put it in the Warehouse so that I could use it? (not as-is, there are a few things I want to do to it.)

Thx. This will help me a lot. I'll just do a couple things to it to make it look a little sess "blocky". (just figured out how to smoothe edges, loving it! :D)

I did one in sketchup, but it kind of looks like a dustbuster on steroids.

you could make something quite impressive in about 5 minutes using NURBS on 3ds max
