HERE YOU GO

PDF - I manually traced the BITMAP you supplied above and I did NOT look at it with a designer's eye - just a TraceMonkey's eye. That should resize up to the size of the GoodYear Blimp if needed!

I couldn't get that download link of yours to work, Boggy! It kept going to some evil "TAKE THIS INTERVIEW" site and would not download. So that is why I did my back up for Blue.
Looks like he's looked after no matter what! Very Happy

A) "SAVE FILE TO MY PC" was probably why I missed that - since I use a MAC now I avoid PC things. Twisted Evil

B) I did originally try pretty much everything to get your file! Laughing

To sum up the assignment so far

marcoballistic
white lines widths all over the place



bogonet
white lines on front face consistent, 3 different line widths on the side



ReinMan
all over the place, grey "parallelograms" are a bit of a mess

Here's a version with consistent width of all white lines



or one with, let's say, some sort of "angle correction" with consistent thinner lines on the grey sides

@Vokaris : as i saw it from orifginal example, white "lines" aren't quite lines, they are spaces between the squares. All three faces are identical, and skewded to 45 degrees and having a half "white line" base displace, will give that optical illusion in "perspective", but still it's orthographic view, not perspective one.
Maybe I didn't read the original correct,then i might be wrong.

Hand CRAFTED, I TELL YOU!!

Each control point - every vector handle - each and every vertex and cornex PERSONALLY traced using EVERY SINGLE PIXEL of the original 147x143 pixel master ! ! !

Goddamnit, Voks!

DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THIS SIMPLE CONCEPT OF CRAFTSMANSHIP vs. "ACCURACY" ? ?

I think this is not quite exact , since you have a base, which is made of white border, same in Y plane as in x and z.

We all have different approaches to the original masterpiece Mr. Blue gave out. I'm only commenting and offering my interpretation.

For what it's worth, the Longmont Engineering website has a different variation of the logo
