I am wondering, what would be the easiest way to make sure all my proportions are correct when modeling?
It seems that is the problem I tend to have when I model
I am trying to model my car so I want to make sure everything is in proper proportions.


Thank you

Hello eurog33k! The simplest way to help ensure proportions stay correct is to model with rotoscopes. Here's a quick video on how you can set those up in Photoshop and then bring them into Softimage:

Here's a link to the Automotive Modeling in XSI (http://www.digitaltutors.com/09/training.php?cid=3&pid=3606) course that was referenced in the video.

Thank you very much, this sure gave me an idea, I already have purchased the BMW course a while back however my car is a VW GTI so I will check out the blueprints website to see if I can find them there.
You guys rock as always, I knew that paying the $45 to try it out will turn into a yearly subscription.
