Default How to create wirefram from vector in illustrator?

Does anyone know how to create a wireframe from a vector graphic or a photo (preferrably a photo) in illustrator? I am designing a rack card with the actual image on the front in pretty colors, but on the back I want the same image but in a wire frame so I can make it look like a technical drawing and make fake specs for the image. CAN ANYONE HELP ME? THANKS AGAIN!

I think you may have to do this on an isometric grid to avoid extra challenges (& many hours) from perspective. If I understand your problem correctly, you will have to render the photo in a simplified manner using the drawing tool in illustrator. Because you have set up an isometric grid, you can repeat your image easily enough.

To make it look more like a sketch you can use a blue stroke (to give it that technical look) and extend lines beyond their borders.

Does this help?
