Howdy guys, I'm running a modern campaign in which the PC's must visit a riverboat casino. I'm wondering if any of y'all have seen a top-down drawing of an old paddle wheel steamer, like this one:
River Boat
Thanks!

I have not seen one and didn't find one using the search function. Sorry

Well I use Google Earth for realworld places.
Check out Steamboat Natchez in New Orleans, LA.
29°57'18.48" N 90°03'42.94" W
or check out here and then go to google earth or bing or other satellite map program.

Good luck.

I found a few models in Google Sketchup. I'm not good at
rendering 3D images, but I'll take a crack at it tonight
and try to upload a halfway decent picture if I can.
EDIT - Hopefully this will work. Sorry it's not better. The model is
this guy's work
All I did was render, add shadows, and fix up some of the textures with some better ones from CGTextures.

HOWDY!
I'm looking for a robotic horse. Anyone ever see this particular beast?

Hi CuriousLurker,
Do you mean a standard horse but textured metal, or a...
...real Boston Dynamics Robo-Mule click HERE...,
...which doesn't have a head or tail?
Also just posted a DAZ robo beast on the below...
...Robo Quadruped HERE... (& scroll down)
...which can be easily re-posed, have it's claws removed, etc., if you think it of use.

As no one will use the one above (odd that real things don't look science fictionny enough, or maybe it just
looks awful), decided to add this for future mechanised cavalry:
All Terrain Vehicle (ATV).
Picture is a hack up of a plastic toy. Maybe someone can mod the colours(?)
@Curious Lurker: maybe someone can do you a proper Robot Horse...!

It's not that the Mule doesn't look science fictiony
enough, but that video gives me the creeps. It looks too
much like two guys facing each other carrying something
like a sofa.

That Daz Robo Quadruped would probably work in a pinch.
Was looking for something closer to this though.

Sorry for the delayed response. I wayward kidney stone hospitalized me for a few days and I'm just remembering what I was working on prior to the event.
