Harley-Davidson Vector: 3D Scan and CAD Creation from Clay Model

by | Jun 24, 2019

To celebrate 120 years of Harley-Davidson, this design below is the last raw mean-machine before the company turns electric in 2030. Crafted around the duality of a clean top half and a mechanical bottom half, the unique traditionalist style of their bikes has been translated into this car-concept through combination of a classic silhouette with contemporary lines, resulting in a bold design that buys into the lifestyle the brand represents.

Lawrence Hanby approached Central Scanning to 3D scan and Reverse Engineer his 1:4 scale clay model. We created an extremely accurate digital 3D CAD model that he could then create exciting, realistic renders and imagery of his design. He found the service from Central Scanning quick and easy – the hardest part was transporting the clay model to and from Swansea!
