Help! Need V-22 Osprey schematics.

[Gepard]

I need to build a 3D mesh of the V-22 Osprey for an assignment, but I'm having terrible trouble finding a decent set of blueprints for the thing online. IIRC, there was even a poster or two here who worked on the Osprey project--is there anybody who has schematics or blueprints they could post or email? Thanks!

These links are for a book and a CD-ROM. Surprisingly I couldn't find anything from Concorde or Squadron/Signal books, they have hundreds of aircraft, ship, and tank books, usually with pretty good diagrams and schematics.

Yeah, anything larger than a few hundred pixels is really hard to find online.

Tragically, all of those are the small ones I've already found. I ended up having to make do with something similar...

Gep, have you tried contacting the Marines? They must have some public relations office that could help you out. Alternatively, go to a well-stocked hobby shop and take your pick of the best plastic model you can find. I did that for a model I built of the Soviet helicopter carrier Moskva once.

Thanks for the suggestion, but my deadline for finishing the mesh has already passed, so I had to make do with shitty blueprints and a ton of reference photos.

Bummer. So how'd it turn out? Was your client satisfied? More importantly, can we see it?

It's not finished yet--I still have to paint the texture maps, but so far, the client seems to be satisfied. As to whether I can show it off, that would depend on if freelance work falls under the company's NDA. I would guess yes, but I'll check.
