Desert Eagle?

I'm going to attempt to model and skin a desert eagle, then make a tag for it, but I just want to know if someone beat me to it and made a readily-available model or tag set for it yet? If there's one made, let me know, because I really want to get a DE in a map, but I don't want to waste time doing something that's been done before.

But, if I end up doing this, if anyone has a Desert Eagle, could you take some pics of it (side, front, and rear) for reference and possibly skinning? I done searches all over the net, but I haven't found a good hi-res picture yet. If you do, send the pics, the caliber, and the clip size to me in an e-mail? Thanks.

Thanks for the help and encouragement, as well as a little bit of resources there.

I found an OK source, but I could probably use a better one. I need skins, too, that match the gun I'm modeling.

I've got a long way ahead of me, for I have NO idea what I'm doing, but I am using some tutorials (like the one stickied above here), so hopefully I will be 1337 like some of you soon... or just steal other people's work and claim it's mine, like some other noobs out there :P :lol:
