I am looking for FTO Blueprints

Post by Rusty12 »

Does anyone have any FTO blueprints? I am looking for high quality scans for 3D modeling reasons, and haven't been able to find any anywhere. I am looking for the kind that you get with Tamiya model kits etc, with side, top, front and back.

If anyone has any, or knows of where I could find some, could you please let me know? I only need some high quality scans, so if you have them and a scanner it would be very musch appreciated if you could send them my way.

Thanks

Rusty.

Rusty, try this out..

http://smcars.nd4spdworld.com/forum/index.php

Has millions of blueprints. The FTO ones are not the best, but decent enough.
What 3D modelling do you do? I do some as a hobby, using Lightwave. I have even made an FTO, but haven't quite finished it, or textured it.

I can post the pics, if someone can host them? 02NV??

I still haven't been able to find any, but I will keep looking. If anyone finds any please let me know as I would love to get my hands on some.

I use 3D Studio Max.

i don't see how 3d modelling is related to engine building but oh well... in your case, try Mitsubishi in NZ since they have factory support over there (as they were officially sold there)

Okay, thanks to GPXXX :D heres the latest pics I made.. this was about 2 months ago.. they are not that flash, and I have done alittle bit more work on the car, but no pics of that.

This is wheel, obviously.. Pretty accurate to my car.

This is the front GI shot.. pretty dark, but I was concentrating on the modelling and not the lighting..

Rear shot.. even darker..

Thanks again GPXXX for hosting!

Those pics are great stuff... I just thought the wheels were a little large (well compared to stock ones anyway).

I used my own FTO as reference, so I guess I don't have stock wheels, or the angle of pics could be making it look bigger or wrong..

you should release wireframes of a completly stock one, so we can all put together possible mods, and make a "dress up your car" section to the site, that'd be wicked
