Older Subaru Blueprints?

Post by PHATnob » Wed Aug 09, 2006 4:03 pm

Hey all, jus wonderin if anyone got a blueprint image (front, side veiws, in osometric format) for a 82-90 brumby?
Maybe CAD design files in DXF format would do also. Dont think that subaru would release these designs to the public, but it would be a real help in reference, since I am modelling a brumby in a 3D application, and need these isometric views to start from to get it as accurate as I want it :P

I been searching the web for ages and only found reference to the older wagons, and those images are crappy resolution, so detail is all but gone.. lol.

Prob not the right place for this question, but was a bit different, so puttin it in general lol.

If anyone can help, would be awesome, cause then I can make a photo-realistic CG brumby that can be modified in any way har!

Something like this but way better resolution.
This one is a very low res gif image, can hardly see anything at all..

Cheers.

I have an MY FSM with some fairly good diagrams of body pieces and so forth but I can't even begin to ponder where you would find a 3D model. I would doubt even FHI would have one.

What about some vector rendering software in say photoshop of something of some imaging quality? I am sure you could mask an image and modify it.

MUDRAT: FSM? Sounds good, I dont need a 3d model, cause I am going to make the 3d model using the schematics if I can find them lol. Is this FSM in digital format, or a booklet? Cheers bud.

Subanator: Thought about tracing over the poor quality images wit illustrator (good for vector) and then using the lines to box-model in 3ds max wit. That is wot ill end up doing if I cant find some brumby pics.
I know they are out there, but prob in some locked office in japan lol.

Tis easy to do the front, as I have reference wit the wagan pics, as crappy as they are, but the back end, and the brumby changes after the front door..

Cheers for help. Appreciate it.

Nah my FSM's a book from 1981 with about 800 pages. It doesn't actually include "utility" model either, upon inspection.
