problem overcome.

While i was building the car for my advert, I had many problems with the measurements. I was finding it difficult to make a net where all the measurements were correct and the final car fit together. After 5 or 6 attempts i decided to construct it on photoshop, using the line tool and photoshop rulers I could make sure each measurement was exact and everything was at perfect right angles to each other. This has proved to be a much easier method, and also means i can duplicate the car easier, say if i wanted four or five, i could simply print them and then fix them together, and they would all be exactly the same. From now on i am going to construct the nets for my models on the computer each time as it gives better results and the models are looking cleaner and better made, and i think this is important.


On the left is the photoshopped version, which i can also scale to any size, so i can experiment with which size looks most realistic, and on the right was the best hand drawn version i created, which didnt quite fit together.
