I was mostly talking about the 1/4 scale clay model my friend already made this semester with a Lincoln sponsored project. It would be nice to make a lightweight model but we don't have one right now and do not have the time to make one in the near future.

Maybe after graduation, when we actually have lives, this can happen. Til then, Flow Illustrator! If you know of a way to convert Autodesk 3D files, particularly .wire, into CFD format let me know. We both have several Alias models that could be used in CFD, if we could only find a way to do it.

Here is a photo of the foam buck for my sophomore project. The model has since been destroyed.

Here are some other people's finished models from previous years.
