AutoCAD RX7

Thought some of you would get a kick out of this, I drew it on AutoCAD 2010 in my graphics class. As an exercise in using polylines, we had to draw a complex shape, and the example was a Mustang in profile.

So, obviously, I had to draw my car. (Straight bodylines ftw)



It's not perfect, but it's unmistakable.

I teach AutoCAD and I would've given you bonus points. Looks great. Did you draw it while looking at a picture? Or did you insert a raster image into your drawing and trace over it?

That's pretty good. I am taking AutoCad 2010, and I thought it was going to be a breeze. I have learned to respect anyone who uses that program. Good job!

I just looked at a picture. I had another layer that had a few dimensions (overall length, wheelbase, height, etc) layed out and I eyeballed the rest bit by bit.
