Really, really nice. I like the first version the best.

What program did you use to draw these if I may ask?

So I absolutely cheated, I took the blender model I made and played with the wireframe settings following as youtube tutorial I found If you set it to minimum it largely just follows the hard edges, and then it just needed tweaking and compositing in photoshop

Hey whatever works as long as it turns out looking good in the end!

Ages ago, I would draw them by hand in ACAD, but nowadays, I use Rhino's Make2D command. Creates near perfect schematics! Then it's just a matter of copying and pasting them into PaintShop Pro.

I wonder if there is a way of doing something similar to your method in Modo. Have to research that.

Keep up the great work!

Great looking schematics, indeed! I think I also like the first version more than the others. The last one is also nice, but it's harder on the eyes, so the first one wins... :-)

May I ask for that tutorial? My own designs will surely benefit a lot from this technique. Thanks a bunch!

Here we go, it doesn't actually give you a transparant wireframe so what I did was set it to black, and also set the background to black and removed the grid so all I was seeing was the wireframe. Poking the slider for it changes the numebr of faces highlighted

Really love this design, got any close-up 3D of it?

I do!

Couple of them posted in other threads, but I have a deviant art gallery for it and a couple of test renders on youtube

Thanks a bunch! Impressive 3D model as well! Keep up the great work! Cheers!
