Photo needed for epic papercraft scale model

[Robert Blaschke]

Hi to all,

I have registered myself here just to get one special photo of Puma.
A kolleague asked me to create a pepercraft scale model of his Puma. I am experienced papercraft creator, but always making "blueprints" on my own, according pictures of real thing.

I did not find any fine picture from top. I need a picture, from high above, let's say from 7th - 10th floor , taken perpendicular to the ground, as far as possible to the top of the machine.

I have perfect pictures from side and from front, but badly miss the one from top.

I would appreciate any help.

Papercraft will be released for free when finished.

Regards
Robert

Think that would be a bit small if taken from the 7th floor tho, :shock:

It depends on the camera But any top view picture is highly welcomed



to evilrob:
Thank you very much, but be sure, I browsed internet throughout and have found megabytes of various references.
But I don't believe drawings from others, I don't rely on anything but pictures of real car. Sorry for that.

I'm sorry, however nice, it is taken too from angle.

Think I may have to have a go at this! I did some of the ones from the Playstation Vita game Tearaway and thoroughly enjoyed it.

It's incredible what people can do with this stuff. :thumbs:

I may be being blind, but did we manage to get the plans for this? i'd love to have a go at building it!

 

[The Arch Bishop]

Not yet, he said in the future it'll be available.

Thanks Robert, but is there any download mirror that doesn't require me to share my social media contacts? I can't say that I exactly trust 4shared!

 

[Robert Blaschke]

Does it? I never had a problem but it is right, that their web is a bit confusing with many "download" buttons.
I put the file also here:

but I don't know if it is any better.

Thank you both! Now I just need to find a way to alter the colour to Cuirass! I shall break out the Photoshop!

Amazing seen before for motorbikes to, now to colour it yellow and change wheels lol.

I guess it needs to be printed 1:1 on A4 paper type as show in in pdf?
