Creating a 3View object from 3-view(aircraft specifically)

GreenAce92 · 3 Dec 2008, 02:32

Well i use to have an account here musta gotten deleted, ive posted a post about this before but it was involving aircraft with rib formers, and a fellow showed me how to turn a 3-view into 3D by using sandbox-drawformers...

now i gotta figure out how to make 3D from a 3-view without cutouts(still didnt fully learn it with cutouts) but i have an idea... but its not exactly working...

my idea was to trace all 3 3-views top/right/front(front is a problem for my idea) but anyways i would expand them, and then intersect them,then trim off the excess and i should get my 3D shape... well its not working so easily...

any other ideas?

Hi Green Ace,

When did you register your previous (disappeared) account?

Anyway, back to your problem: could you show us some exmples?

Edit: just as a "teaser", have a look at this topic in the gallery. It also started from some 2D views of the model (although certainly went quite far from simply building the basic mesh).
