thank you Marian. but that's a box pickup model. i was planning to draw a minibus model. already working on it actually. though few friends and relatives have been asking me for visual for their house drafts.
i've never thought to look for it in the warehouse duh -
-
yes, Marian. actually that company located on the other island of my country.
and apparently you showed me one of 3 "blueprint"s that i have here. if you checked that "blueprint", it wasn't really a blueprint at all and not quite symmetric kind.
i am working on this one though, if i have the time;
sorry elisei and steve, didn't mean to get off topic

Hey , no problem !
I'll rehire you for one reason : finish that minibus,slam it to the floor add some wider/bigger wheels put a W12 engine and let's ride together in the Le Mans race .Btw , there is no thing as perfect blueprint, so don't expect all the lines to match perfectly.All the blueprints i worked on so far were disaligned. At the beginning I was a bit upset, didn't knew how to handle it, and then I realised that there is no need for perfect alignment(although that makes the work harder). Just make sure you follow the overall lines and you will be ok . Nobody is going to compare the real scale model inch by inch with your model !
Also, most important search for as many as possible good pictures of the car you are modeling, because you won't be able to reproduce a real car just from some flat blueprints(which are often not accurate).
Some more work !
-
And more work on this beast !
HINT: Don't forget to use XRay and parallel projection combined with each view to follow exactly the blueprint lines .
BTW : How it is possible to see the blueprints when i work inside a component or group? I am forced to work only outside groups or components because the blueprints are not in them . Is there a way so i can see them while are not inside the groups or components?
-
Getting there !!
-
wow, you should teach me how to have that kind of talent and patience working on that thing -
Nice work! coming along nicely

Good question.. I'd love to see an answer. One possibility is to use photomatch - this is set up exactly for tracing images. It's tricky setting the view, but it's possible to do parallel projection I believe.

I already answered that one to Ely directly but I'll say it again so more people will know.
It is possible to keep pictures visible even while working in groups/componenets by just keeping the photo unexploded when you first import it. Of course doing this limits you to only being able to scale or move the pictures into place. So you'll have to precut the pictures and then import each one into SU.

I don't know if that is something to be taught but something to be achieved in time .
Thanks for that info Marian .
Some more work on the bimmer !
-
Getting into details !
-
excellent knowledge, good and neat job
-
how are you doing the step in the second to last and third to last images? From SDS to a simpler mesh? Are you using a plugin?
-
Hey guys,thanks for the comments!
I never let the parts subdivided, except when they are final, and even then I keep a copy of them unsubdivided .
I subdivide the part to see how it looks and then I undo the entire operation of subdividing.
I explained that better in my book : http://books.sketchucation.com/
-
cool, I'll have to take a look at that. Thanks for the clarification about the order. I was trying to think how to get a clean reduced mesh like that from an sds mesh

Very nice work Elisei. I am enjoying this thread very much.
