Greetings everyone; I am preparing a set of draughts of the Royal Caroline of 1749, and I want to include all the carved work. I intend to draw all the carved work by hand, using ink and pencil, and then scan the drawing, remove the background rectangle, and import just the carving into CAD. However, I cannot find any way of permanently removing the unwanted background, and creating a file with just the outline of the carving and all its detailing. Everything I have tried, and I have spent quite a few hours with several programs attempting this, leaves a white rectangle which blanks out all existing objects around it. Is anyone aware of a method of removing the background rectangle, leaving just the lines and shading I have drawn. Any help would be much appreciated. I am using AutoCAD LT2016, and have tried Photoshop elements and Power Point to remove the background. Example file below. All the best, Mark P

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal.
