I am having a hard time looking for drawings or line art to print for me to design my 39 Merc. Anyone have a link or photos I can use to print and chicken scratch? I am a terrible artist but can fix things. I know no one that draws. Even views of photos of front, side and back would help. Need to be able to redesign the car as well as make notes for measurements, etc. Most thru searching shows at angle, etc... Thank You
I remember photography software that wood make a sketch from a photo. It's been awhile and it might have come with a camera.?
Simular car I am looking to build. I like the style and the way the back is curved making it look almost factory.
I thought I'd see what could be made w/ online tools. Some of the lines are washed out, but it isn't bad:
My 8-yr old laptop can't handle modern photo programs, so I went online. I couldn't find one site that did what I wanted, so this is how I cobbled it together: I removed the background at https://www.experte.com/background-remover (I had to delete some portions of the railing by hand) Converting from color to grayscale at https://onlinejpgtools.com/convert-jpg-to-grayscale seemed to help the final result. You may be able to eliminate this step with some photos. The conversion to line art at https://suncatcherstudio.com/photo-to-sketch/ finished it off. You'll need to play with the contrast & density sliders to find the best compromise. I did delete some extraneous pixels on a desktop photo editor to clean it up a little. Looking back, I think I could have improved it by doing a second conversion a little darker and pasting the sections like the wheels and fender lines into the first conversion where they are washed out.
