I can offer assistance too should you care for any. I work with Max 6 w/ Brazil, as well as several variations of the AutoCad platform, photoshp etc. I do architectural visualizations for a living, so if you'd like any help let me know....................i was planning on building a bug model for planning reasons as well, just have never got around to it. Maybe we could share some modeling work - basically cut eachothers workload in half. What are you planning on modelling beyond the basic stock vw setup?

Hey Vincent,

Where did you get the bp drawings from, I can only seem to find ones for the new beetle.
What units are you working with, and also.....when you get beyond the spline cage, are you going to use editable poly, mesh, etc.?

i would love to pull a gallery section together of this type of work as you guys get to results. i will even consider a download section for others to leverage the raw 3D wireframe files. any other ideas in this area? i would love to see this blossom as a useable tool for all. i know just using photoshop techniques helped me greatly in making design choices on my car.

I think thats a great idea man! I could use something like that for my 72! i think it would help out a ton!

I would also like to get my hands on a Fridolin, what a crazy GL that would make, are they even GL worthy! O well I think they look crazy man

You bet they are, I think the Frid has something about it that makes it...... the only word I can think of is beautiful

Just imagine a twin turbo 996 powered Frid sat on a set of GT3 wheels, ceramic brakes

ME too Me too!

As you all may have seen I'm quite handy w/ photoshop...
I also happen to know 3ds max and currently working on a 1303 on Maya.
Gotta say...I just eyeball the stuff but it's comin along.

It'd be sweet to be able to have access to these as references!

I got the idea after messing w/ bug selecta and thought, "Man, it'd be great if I had a full 3d model to test out my ideas on!

If we get enough materials together....maybe we can make a GL 3d "selecta" of our own and stick it in flash so we can do all that crazy rotate and modify stuff
that the modern car manufacturer websites have!

just my 2cents! =P

A purley selfish request if it were possible it would be great if someone could do a 3D version of an early baywindow bus.
I would try and do it myself but I have enough problems with paint, the thought of a cad system frightens the life out of me
