Bonus
You will receive my original .blend file with the finished project.
We will use blueprints with original dimensions as a reference for creating the 3D model.
These blueprints were only created for this course and are not available anywhere else.
I also suggest that you search for other reference images online to get an idea of what we are creating in detail.
