Image Planes (are clear to take off !)

Yep, not only have i learnt to wallpaper but also i have created my image planes, wooo. You know what that means? Modelling time is the next stage.

Now as you know from the previous post i have been struggling to draw a front view. So i decided that seems as i was pretty chuffed with ye model i made earlier. That i would use those photos to help draw my my image planes.

Also by using photos of the front view and side view of the model as reference i know that the image planes should work and match as they are photos of my actual model. Then the 3rd bit of geniusness I've had during this stage was that i took some photos before i added hair to the model so i can get a real good idea of the shapes i need to build on the computer and try and work out what the geometry will look like. (My minds worked it all out, but my modelling skills in maya will probably mean that all plans Will fail and go out the window.)

Wow, i know but this short victory will end as soon as i start modelling on the computer. A stage that i want to end fairly quickly as i just want to animate this thing now.

Finally while at this stage of creating the image planes i was able to do a final front and side colour view image.
