These are some good models! By the way, it appears the "3M Polygon" model does not actually have 3 million polygons.

Thanks for sharing this link with us.

I think this could be considered for an addition to Celestia Origin.

Celestia Origin already has a good model and texture for Ryugu, but the current model could be replaced with this one.

Yes, I plan to add this model. Even already converted it for testing. Only need to move the texture to match the details.
The previous model is unofficial.
