hi everyone

i'm modeling hektor in 3ds max. i know it looks like two spherical asteroids stuck together via a low velocity impact, but i don't have any photograph or artist's representation to look at to look at the details. anyone have any idea where i can find any drawings/images?

thanks in advance

No one knows for sure what it looks like, this guy has three possible shapes listed on his webpage:

thanks a lot man, now i've got an idea of what i'm actually making :-)

i think i'll make the second one; for some reason, it seems to make more sense than the other two.

the first one looks like an ordinary lame asteroid and the third kind of defies my logic for some reason. i think i'll make a poll after some time to get other peoples' opinions.

thanks again
