I use the "Project" command to make panel lines.

Use the view that shows the lines best (top, front, or side), and trace over them using the polyline command,

Select the lines, then type project. When it says "Select objects to project on to", select the surface you want the line to appear on, and press enter.

As to exporting to corel draw or illustrator, I don't know exactly. Here's how I export though:

once you get everything unrolled and arranged (I try to get everything arranged vertically so it goes with the grain of the paper), select it, then click on: file>export selected

Type in an easy to remember name, select the destination folder, and choose a file type supported by your graphics program (I don't know what corel Draw or Illustrator use), and press enter,

Next will be a menu to pick the export size. What I do is decide how many sections I want to break the fuselage into, and assume a length of 9 inches for each section. Say I want 2 sections, I type in a height of 18 inches. For the width, I pick a size that makes the selected objects fill the screen, with small gaps along the edges.

You'll probably have to resize a bit in your graphics program to get everything to fit properly.

Rhino file can "save as" Illustrator.

I use Adobe Illustrator (.ai) as exporting format.
I design my missiles in full scale, and the .ai export has an scaling option after you choose the file name. The left box gets your desired scale, the right one gets the "1".

I use this:-

Book World War I Card Model Design a Step by Step Guide - ECardmodels.com Shop - Downloadable

It's in Rhino and I fully recommend it. If follows the design of a WW1 plane but the process can be used for anything.



Cheers JTF
