Don't know if this is the right place to ask, but does anyone have a .pov or
.mdl model of a Pocari Sweat vending machine?  Just think it'd be cute thing
to add as a prop to my 3d model I'm working on.

That's fascinating. You mean you can buy sweat out of a vending machine?
BTW, what's so special about a pocari that anyone would want it's sweat?
And, what IS a pocari?

Sorry, couldn't resist. :)

Not sure what a Pocari is, but I think a Pecari is a small pig-like creature;
I have no idea why they made a drink called Pocari Sweat, you see it from time

that it really exists!)

Maybe it's another example of a language twist.  Sweat in that context might
be meant as a cooling drink to stop sweat.  On the other hand sweating is
supposed to be good for you (okay, lets call it perspiring instead), thus a
drink that helps replinish lost fluids so a person can continue to perspire
nicely.

But hey, I have no idea where to find such a model.  Sorry....

Hmm...I looked it up myself, and the drink proclaims to be almost identical
nutrient-wise to sweat, to replenish ions and whatnot lost while sweating.
There's a picture of the front of a Pocari Sweat vending machine at
http://wms.luminet.net/hchriste/Vend_Machine_Pocari_Sweat.html
but...*shrug* I dunno.  Just thought it'd be cute.

I read somewhere on the net that it's a drink that's like Gatorade - it has
the same chemicals as sweat. I also heard it tastes like sweat too... Yum!

I've only ever come across this drink in Japan.. there you only have to 
go 100 yards before you bump into another vending machine, even in the 
middle of the countryside :-)

From the pic, it looks like a task for good old csg.
