jaybyrd 3,770 Posted May 11, 2015 I just take a straight on picture and a few key measurements and design on that. Templates are notorious for not being super accurate. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moody Blue 505 Posted May 11, 2015 www.the-blueprints.com has just about everything but these are not "architectural" drawings by any means but simply just line drawings...as jaybird said may not be exact to scale (i.e. headlight placement/door handles, ect.) being that these are created and submitted by graphic artists and not the manufacturer. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dcbevins 340 Posted May 11, 2015 A picture locked in place suffices for many things. If you place a yard stick or ruler on the car with a piece of tape, then you have a way to scale the picture to one on one in your design software. I am not doing full on wraps. If I were, I would want a source for more accurate templates. However, I have eyeballed this set of templates, they offer some free ones: http://www.unleash.com/ddw/vehicle-templates/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildgoose 4,200 Posted May 12, 2015 I do what dc does and have a tape somewhere in the pic or measure a door or something to scale a pic up to actual size then design on top. I also do not do full wraps so that's a whole different world. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skarekrow 1,842 Posted May 12, 2015 There will be some Trial & Error with any decal that's meant to be placed on non-flat, convoluted planes. For instance, a Stripe that is intended to follow the contours of fender well bulges... A flat picture cannot take into account the three dimensional protrusions of an actual auto. Patterns will likely have to be made and adjusted for some graphics to lie as intended. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
