This appears to be a patterned version of 62360. I can probably provide a picture once I open the actual set it comes in.

Pattern not easy since the curvature is high. Try to make (at least) two photos, from a 45° direction left and right(*), with the lens at the same level as the part.
(*) the pattern looks subtly assymetrical!

Here’s some photos. The patterns looks symmetrical. Let me know if you want a different angle.

I've arrived at set 21044 and find myself also in need of this part. I don't know if I'm quite at the skill level yet to conquer a curved pattern like this one…et je voux construire la tour Eiffel. ;-)

(There is also some question whether the underlying part is actually 35299, which we don't have.)

(2020-06-09, 8:06)Philippe Hurbain Wrote: Yes, that's the tool I would use. Use the front of windscreen as former, and make the pattern from there. Since the curvature is high, probably needs to make it in (at least 3, perhaps 4) sections at from several directions. Junctions can be a nightmare... And this pattern is not even symmetrical

(2020-06-09, 14:39)N. W. Perry Wrote: Yes, and the pattern is at an angle with respect to the part, because it attaches at a vertical angle, but the arch is supposed to match the angle of the legs (just short of 34°).

Regarding the symmetry, I can't tell if it's supposed to be, and the printing layers are just offset (a common issue), in which case perhaps you could do the light and dark gray as two mirrored halves, then add the black shading afterward (which is asymmetrical in any case)?

Assuming I could even get LPC up and running (Mac issues…), this one is really beyond my skill for now!

(2020-06-13, 15:58)N. W. Perry Wrote: Here's how it looks in the model. I notice something funny with the rendering of some of the triangles, but that seems to be an LDCad thing. It happens in the underlying part as well, and only in alpha blending mode. LDView renders it fine.
