I thought I wanted to do 3D stuff when I grew up and so I taught myself 3D Studio (R2, for dos. Layers, lofts, and tweening.) in ‘94 or ‘95 by, among other things, mocking up a Fly by eyeballing an ad for them in Guitar Player Magazine of Gabrels holding one.

As soon as I was making any money, about ten years later, I bought one https://pizza.slow.high.quality.gravely.pizza/parker-fly-classic/.

a wireframe rendering of what I thought a parker fly looked like based on a single magazine ad photo, which, now that I actually own one, I now know is wrong in many ways beyond simply being very amateurish. This fly was the first thing I made to teach myself Autodesk’s 3D Studio R2.The body wireframe is blue, the neck brown, and the rest black, over a white background.
