    Default Sega Neptune 3D Model

    I am currently working on a 3d render of the Sega Neptune prototype and I figured I should post some of the work in progress shots to get some criticism and see if I am missing anything. This thing is hard to get any good reference images to work off of. By no means is this project done but getting some extras eye on it wouldn't hurt.

    I most glaring thing missing is the cuts on the sides. I am waiting to put those on as one of the last things.

    Looks like a good start. The area around the cart port looks to be missing some definition (the "valley" formed by the shape of the shell looks a tad shallow). Other than that, nothing stands out as off or not quite right as best I can tell.

    Very cool! If you get it finished it would be awesome if it could be imported to a 3D printer and printed out for those of us who make Neptune consoles.

    What is the Sega Neptune again? Was that a Prototype Saturn? My memory of the mid 90s Sega stuff is hazy.

    Oh. I never had a 32x, but I thought the thing was a pass through device like the Power Base Converter.

    So what exactly is this project all about? Redesigning a 3D printable shell for something that doesn't exist?
