SketchUp and Kerkythea. My interest in creating this model was to see if I could accurately portray the picture tube.

I created a 3D lens shape, because in Kerkythea you need an airtight object to use the dielectric glass. I rounded the edges of the glass lens and make the outside curve a bit different than the curve of the plastic bezel and moved it back a bit - all this to give a bit of a shadow around the edges like you usually see.
Then, behind the glass lens inside the case I placed a screen to use as a background for the gray. I figured I could play with this material in Kerkythea and adjust it until I was happy with the color.
Thanks for the nice comments!
