Rob Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 I had a request for a key rack featuring a Ford GT500 Mustang. Having found a suitable image on the web, I used Inkscape (Thanks Travis for your excellent tutorials!) to create a pattern. It was interesting working out what detail to include and what to omit but I hope I have captured the essence of the car. This was my first attempt at creating a pattern so if any pattern designers have any suggestions or tips I would be most interested.

dgman Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 Great job Rob! You did an excellent job on the pattern too! It looks just like a GT Mustang. Have you ever seen one in person? You still see them on the road around here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 no problem guessing this car. It came out quite well. One can get too much detail in a pattern, as Kevin stated, or too little. I think this is about perfect, especially for what it it designed to be. good Job Dick heppnerguy Rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted July 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 Great job Rob! You did an excellent job on the pattern too! It looks just like a GT Mustang. Have you ever seen one in person? You still see them on the road around here! Thanks Dan, I have seen one when we lived in the UK but you don't see many American cars here in NZ, mostly Jap imports.
