[Sammyr]

I dont know if there is any other AutoCAD users out there but if so i posted a block on www.cben.net it is on the vehicles page /elevations/ page 3

thats pretty neat, i dont have the dwif file reader at my house, but ill check it out at school, maybe see if its possible to modify it. lol

what u do for a living???

I am a Architectural Draughtsman, work for a small firm in Dunedin New Zealand give good oppitunities for drawing cars and the like when there is a quiet moment (and when I am not keeping a eye on this site )

whoops that was supposed to be a smile not a yawn!

[devilsden97]

hey weve been know to be a bit boring at times lol


im currently in rolled in college learing to do something with it....im really not sure my direction tho.

[Sammyr]

Ah good stuff, as long as you have got the CAD basics down well it can lead to many diffrent jobs I just enjoied the drawing houses bit, hence becoming a draughtsman. Let me know how you get on modifying the dwg good luck!

[devilsden97]

will do

Very cool, I use autocad 2004 at home and 2006 at school. Too bad i didn't know about this website sooner, coulda used the celica as my company logo. We have a plotter at school, maybe i'll scale the celi down a little smaller to a A or B sheet and plot it. Very nice man. I haven't drawn anything like that yet. Glad to see theres cadders here!!

Yet

I did this one day between classes, about 15 minutes of toying with sizes and stuff. (im retarted and unioned it together so i cant adjust it without some extensive work)



pretty good for 15 minutes tho

Not bad, drop it into a Autodesk VIS render (if you have access to that) and sitck some materials on it will look real cool!

cool stuff. im a autoCAD jockey...architecture major. 50 hours a week doing autocad on my last internship

[CoSo]

That's pretty cool. How did you make it? Using splines?

[hurley97]

haha...very cool

i have autoCAD on my laptop
got it from work...i work for an architect and engineer

i was going to major in architecture but i got the job the summer before my senior year in HS and they told me not to do it so im doing mech. engineering instead...but i still love when they give me houses to work on

i wanted to make a 3d version [of an easier car thats not so curvey] in autocad or 3dsmax because the cad teacher at the HS i went to has a 3D printer

Neat, ill have to mess with that while im bored today. I'm a piping design draftsman in training.

yeah, was going to but ran out of time.

the symbol itself is 3 elipses, and i just used arcs to put in the horns. Then i trimed the over laping lines, made it a solid, and extruded it.

The celica sure would be a hard car to put into 3d hardly any straight lines on the thing! it would probably have to be a mesh of some sorts similar to that used for 3d landscaping (drape command i believe it is ) dont get to use it often myself, too busy working in 2d hence the 2d celica, it has appeared in quite a few jobs I have worked on now. Seeing the number of folks using AutoCAD I might have to draw the plan and other elevations. Also out of interest I havent come across a 3d printer what is the difference between that and a normal plan printer?

Hey, I am a 3D artist, or something like that ) I will make the sweet Celica in 3DsMax.
But not right now, I am waiting to buy the car, this will take some time (1..2 months).

I have this image, maybe you need it.

its a big huge machine and you put in some kind of powder and just like a printer it goes accross the powder putting glue [or something] in the proper places and works its way up and when its done you brush the excess powder away and you have your model in 3d that you can hold and paint or whatever you want to do wtih it. i made plans of a loft in Architectual Desktop and imported it to 3DSMax and printed it...the pictures are out of focus but i guess you get the idea:

Now that is cool! there could be some good opputinities (spelling?) for custom fibreglass parts with one of those at your disposal! The loft looks cool too!
