Contest Prizes

Every winner from the Poor Man’s modeling contests get to wade through our junk-bin of used and outdated books and manuals. Each unfortunate winner gets their choice of a crappy book for nostalgia purposes. Yes, these things should have been thrown out ages ago (some already were!). But the admin of Highpoly3d just couldn’t bear it, being a collector freak. However, misery loves company, so now this junk is available to YOU.

NOTE:: The cat is not available, it is an item for display purposes only.
