zamani532 1 Posted March 21, 2012 I can only find reference images that are either from the front or frontal side angle. I have no perfectly flat side images of said vehicle and no measurements. How do I model this or do I just have to guess? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[frl]myke 14 Posted March 21, 2012 §22) Use descriptive thread titles If you start a new thread, please make sure your thread title explains what you want without forcing people to read through your post first. Thread titles such as "How in the world do I...", "Need help!" or "Will we ever see..." are anything but descriptive. We do not allow these kind of titles and threads with such titles are subject to be closed. Besides that, some more info would be helpful, mainly which vehicle you mean. Maybe as a quick shot, this might help: http://www.the-blueprints.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zamani532 1 Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) My bad on the title, there is so, so much media on this vehicle, but sadly nothing to the direct side of it. I was going to try and model the Safir, a 3/4 jeep, but I can't find any good refs and my imagination isn't up to spec with experienced modelers.. I just thought it would be fun to run around in a tiny jeep with a ATGM mounted on the back :) Edited March 21, 2012 by zamani532 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[frl]myke 14 Posted March 21, 2012 Wikipedia has at least some data about length and width: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safir_%28vehicle%29 Since it is a iranian vehicle, maybe (if you're able to understand) browsing some iranian sites will reveal some more info. In worst case, it looks a bit like a Willy's Jeep. Maybe use the Willy's as base and the try to convert it to look like the Safir....sorry, i think this is your best bet.

zamani532 1 Posted March 21, 2012 Yeah, I guess converting a jeep into the thing will be a ton easier then trying to make my own drawing, I'll take your advice and do that. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rksl-rock 1301 Posted March 28, 2012 Its hard to construct a side view from only a front view. The best method i can suggest is to look for side photos then create a schematic over that. I use a CAD program for that usually but you can use Photoshop, GIMP or similar. Low res side view for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
