You're better of going for the 'real' deal at once. I think these models were made by cki in the past to give a global impression to (potential) customers of what they can do. I hope they will impress us again at a later stage.
Using real life models and maquettes are quite common in game development. If you are interested in the biz keep an eye on Game Developer Magazine I think it was a couple issues ago they had a whole article on using real life models to help you bring detail to your virtual ones.

I have worked on a number of projects that went from 2D sketch to 3D real life model to a virtual 3D one. Designers actually reference the 3D real life model quite frequently and base many changes off it. I guess it all depends on the firm you are working for and the resources that are available.

I would love to show you the process involved but I can't due to non-disclosure agreements. The information is out there though GL on your quest.

Its great to see a company like CKI realising the potential of EU (as we all have) and boldly taking the EU concept to the next level.

As others have already pointed out, thanks to Ed and Berny for the information and engaging the community from day 1 - its a refreshing change for us
