Did I understand this correct: 3d in python is slow? But how did they do Blender? I thought Blender was made in python. And they say it's a fast 3d modeler.

Blender is not made in Python, you can program extensions for Blender in the Python language. Secondly, when people say 'fast 3d modeller' they're talking about shortcuts and stuff, to model fast. Thirdly, if you use Python in combination with OpenGL it'll be a lot faster.

Why not make the model yourself? Or write a script to automate the generation of these kind of primitive objects. You'll find you have a massive file quite quickly though.

I have some airplanes that I made in 3ds Max, what file format do you want it exported in?

Thanks for bringing up a 4 month old topic. >_>;;;

The file format is just a list of all the vectors. There's no formal format I was using, but it could be parsed from a list of vectors in to what I need. Doesn't really matter at all anymore though.
