We present a 3D photoionization model of the planetary nebula NGC 6302, one of the most complex and enigmatic objects of its kind. Its highly bipolar geometry and dense massive disc, coupled with the very wide range of ions present, from neutral species up to Si 8+ make it one of the ultimate challenges to nebular photoionization modelling. Our mocassin model is composed of an extremely dense geometrically thin circumstellar disc and a large pair of diffuse bipolar lobes, a combination which was necessary to reproduce the observed emission-line spectrum
