Index of 3D models

This page offers the 3D models in the following four media types.
Please note that some of them are large in file size and will be very slow on the phone line connection.
They may also require extensive amount of computer resource.

1. Pictures of the 3D models in JPEG format
2. Movies of the 3D models in AVI format
3. Movies of the 3D models in MPEG format
4. 3D models in VRML format

The models can be also found under separate pages.
