Any way to show a picture on the screen when a model is clicked?

Question

I would like in the scene to be abel to use the mouse to click on objects, which I can do and my scene works interactively when you move the object with the mouse, but first of all I would like a picture to come up that can be closed with an 'X' on click and a different picture for each model in the scene. Is this possible

Yes, it is possible. Make a script with an OnMouseDown function and an OnGUI function and attach the script to your model.

Use OnMouseDown to detect the click on the model. In the OnMouseDown function you can set some boolean: showPicture = true;
Use OnGUI to make some GUI that is only shown when showPicture is true. You can use DrawTexture to draw your image. Also make a button that will set showPicture = false; and make the button look like an 'X'.
