Hi Daniel,
thanks for the link!
I had found those blueprint style drawings already but there´s more nice
info in the thread I didn´t have.
You´re right, I´m playing around with Game assets.
Here in Germany, we don´t have Internet filtering (like in the UK, we
have GEMA, thought) but we do of course
have laws regarding the possession of firearms. This can sometimes feel
a bit funny, for example in case
you ever own a steak hammer that has a knuckle-duster grip, don´t bring
it to Germany, even if it´s solid silver.
Itzee verboten, because itzze regarded a dangerous weapon. I don´t see
why but that may just be me.
Same could apply for a coffeemug with knuckle duster grip but I´d have
to re-check if that is currently allowed or not.
For assault rifle type weapons/pistols/rifles/etc , there´s ways to get
stuff approved (by having certain parts welded/drilled).
We have a few dealer here specialized on deactivated stuff, sometimes
even offering reasonable pricing.
For stuff like Tommy Guns, Stens, AK(m)s, M16´s that´s better sources
than flimsy Airsoft models but there´s exceptions.
Cheers,
tim
P.S: Another good source is google´s us patent search...

You must have some serious filters in Germany for weapons. It took me
1 Google minute to fing a blueprint of the stoner 63.

Middle of the page has a full scaled blueprint.
Yes, company are very protective of their IP. You also have toconsider
that information like weapons are controlled for safety and security
reasons.
Look like you are working on game assets.

Thanks guys for the links and suggestions.
I´ve checked my specs, turns out that my triangle limit for a car
should be
in the 25000 - 45 000 tri region, incl. interiors.
That means interesting silhouettes are still possible but no
specific make details.
I´ve ordered some books to cook things down into their essence and
go from there,
still trying to find representative examples of a specific area as
"C-Frame" masters
to pop various grills and bodies on, generalising wheelbases and
interiors.
For the guns, stuff like the Stoner 63 or any type of shotguns
like Winchester M97 or M12´s
are hard to come by in Germany and airsoft replicas are the only
option, also for stuff
like some types of tactical lights, nightvision scopes and
pistol-grip shotguns, as there
are quite some restrictions for possession of such stuff in Germany.
Not to mention thatColt for example is touchy when using their IP.
Like IKEA.
In short, I guess I´ll be able to depict a specific class but not
specific makes.
Cheers,

For weapons you could look into airsoft replicas.
The insides are airsoft, but the outsides of these"toys"
are sometimes very accurate.
Just a thought :)

Hi guys,
does anyone know of a good ressource for firearms and
vehicles:
weapons blueprints - Swedish K´s/Port Said´s, Stoner
63´s, S&W K-Frames, M16/M16A1´s, M60s.
vehicle blueprints, especially 60´s cars, from sedans
to station wagons.
I´d be willing to pay handling fees for machining
level data and or reliable dimensions
depending on origin (laws applicable)
bolthead/receiver int. detail data can be excluded.
I´m finding it especially hard to find really good
vehicle data.
There´s some GMC heritage stuff and a variety of
books on amazon available
but multi view plans of 60s/70cars are rare, as is
photo data.
There are many 3D models available (like from
humster3D.com) to start with but I would appreciate
to be able to add more accuracy and detail based on
plans and references.
For weapons, here in Germany, I can resort to getting
deact´s for hands on data aquisition or check
weaponeer.net <http://weaponeer.net> to see
enthusiasts at work but for cars, there´s loads of
stuff less than accurate enough.
Cheers,
tim
