Scooter Model Progress

I am fairly pleased with how it is going. The most tricky bit so far has been the curved bit behind the seat I re-started that one from scratch once because I wasn’t happy with the way that the polygons were going. The pictures in the background are planes that I UV mapped with photographs as a reference in orthographic view you can just trace the outlines of the edges if you’ve got the photos set up right. The problem with the photos is scaling them to the right size and getting them in the right place, if that isn’t done correctly you find out that looking from one direction gives you a different position for things than the rest and also photos are not usually square wheras the default plane is.
