Im trying my hand at 3D modeling for the first time and want to give the Shadow cat a go. I am basing my initial attempts off of some Sarna sketches, if anyone knows of any technical readouts or schematics that show good detail of the components I would appreciate it!

Thanks

It's a tiny image but it give two orthographic views of it, which can be very helpful.

Just like a FedSun dog to treat a tech request with his Jungian projection.

Thanks for the google image search prompt..

I've obviously taken steps to answer my own question before asking the community. I have seen some pretty intricate schematics of more well known mechs, is it the case that those just were not produced for all mechs? I never got into the TT and consequently have never browsed much of the technical readout stuff.

The Shadow Cat is one of the most built BattleTech models after the Timber Wolf. I know of a few people that's done one. Here's possibly the best version out there so far:

I got all TR`s here but sorry there ist nothing like a Blueprint. I got the Blueprints of a Warhammer, a Vulture etc. Basicly all that exist. If you wold licke to have something like this.



I`m sorry as far as I know its not existing. The only way to get someting like this is you give the Work to someone that is doing this for you. Problem here , it would look like the artist and you think it should look like. Thats why I postet the google search link. The only way I see to get throu is, you take the parts and Details you like the most. There ist nothing like a BP for that mech what means if you are creating it it looks like the one youcreatet from that moment. Dont get your consentration to close on Details , keep the shape of the original design at everybody would be happy .
Just a gues

The links

postet should help you and the Details on that pictures are very Detailed. But even here this is just a Version of an Artist so thats the Mech look that he created. His Version more or less.
