Seeking 3d models of Dish equipment

[JohnnyProphet2001]

This probably isn't the right place for this, but I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I might be able to aquire 3d or cad models of Dish Network equip for a possible training animation I am considering for my shop. I do animation on the side and wouldn't have time to do the modelling, but I think it would be helpful to know what department to bother for this. Dish may not approve but its worth a try. I know it sure could help out in training new guys at our business. My avatar is a model I did of my tv. Anyway, I was hoping someone in this forum might know. Not seeking to sell anything, just trying to lend a hand at our shop and I love doing animation. Thank you in advance.

Ok so the last few days have been kinda slow for us in our area, so I decided to sit down and model a dp 34 switch and my 522 receiver. I am going for realism here, please let me know what you guys think. This is my first image post, so I hope this works.Thanks

Nice work. What software did you use?

Thanks guys! I use 3D Studio Max 7 with touch ups in Paint Shop Pro. Been using this software for about 8 years or so for hobbie.

Ok, here ya go. If I had a high quality logo of SatelliteGuys.US with black background, I could put that in the tv screen instead and you'd have shameless free advertisement!

I finished the back end of the receiver (at least for today) so here's a look at that.
