These should not be taken as law but rather as just the aforementioned, my opinions. If there is anything that I have not covered here feel free to email me with your question. I am always happy to hear from all of you. Two reasons actually. They add more polygons to the total parts count and most of the time I don't have the room to spare.
Technical drawings are hard to come by.
The method I use usually involves some basic aircraft dimensions and at least four photo's from different angles. Half the time I end up free-handing a large portion of the model because the photo's don't cover the whole plane. I don't really. Some of them are done within an evening or so, but my real secret is that I usually have 4-5 in the workshop at any given time. I will not however, do specific aircraft to match one that you may know of or own personally.
