Here is 3D WebGL view of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko with more natural colors :)

And another view, with Philae lander landing site "Agilkia" marked:

Good work Cabbibo!

Here is another interactive 3D model showing the Rosetta comet and the Philea landing site that is editable, created in https://Clara.io: https://clara.io/view/0b4d0e55-c986-45a4-a4f9-05b1be03364f/w...

Data: http://blogs.esa.int/rosetta/2014/10/03/measuring-comet-67pc...

Nothing too special, but the shape of the comet is so pretty, I wanted to see what it looked like in 3D with weird colors.

Very nice. Where did you get the data from? Small gripe, but the default colour map is a little garish, could you change it to something more natural?

Natural one is here: http://www.elmarnieser.nl/demos/rosetta/ I didn't have any bump map data, and since I can't compare with how cool that one looks, figured might as well go the totally opposite direction :)
