Hello,

I want to make a truck cab of an Volvo F88/89 Truck (1970s), to print it out in 1:14 scale - for a RC-Truck.
I have some primitive blueprints and the measurements.

I imported a front, side and top view in viacad and scaled the Images to 1:1 scale.

But now, I don't now, how to go further...


Update 2-2017
With a lot of try and error I have managed it to draw the cab in an acceptable look for me.
I worked the most time with solids, which were extruded from profiles.
Where I have to quit is the original rounded shape of the roof.




Regards

Markus

After two years of designing more or less, my truck comes to life…
I uploaded all files of the cab on my thingiverse page www.thingivese.com/renngarage
