Does anyone know where I can find free human reference images? A site with images from both front and side.

If you put a liink to 3d.sk on your website and tell them about it, they will send a a good set from their library. That’s what I did.

And, of course, it helps if you are modeling someone well known, that way there will be lots of pictures on google images to use.

Do anyone know any site with blueprints of old tanks? If not what is the differences between a modern tank and a tank from WW1?

Tanks from WWI had wooden floors and were extremely slow and inaccurate.

So on WW1 tanks there aren’t any other cosmetic change than wooden floor? When I started this thread I didn’t knew what front and sideview images where called, but now I it’s called blueprints, but I wanted blueprints.

One more thing on WWI tanks: they often didn’t have a large turret on the top but a smaller one on each side. It looked much like a vertical oil-barrel with the gun shaft sticking out of it, free to rotate horizontally. Also, the treads went around the entire side of the tank.

The tanks lookes something like this:


_____________________
\                    \
 \         [ - ]     \
  \___________________\

(side-view)

The [-] in the middle denotes the turret.
