Hello, I'm a beginner maya, and I try to create my first 3d model. But, my first problem is very basic , because I can't put the image plane in the same scale.
I try to create aircraft model. I use 3 image plane, in the same scale. But when I import this images in maya, the side image was in a big scale.
my question is; how I put same scale in the 3 images (in maya)?
You need to take your picture into some image editing software, like Photoshop, and you can crop the individual images in there that are all the right size in relation to each other (so you'll have seperate side, front, top views, etc). Sorry, I can't go into much detail right now, I'm v. busy, but I'll post again with some more info soon as I get the chance.............
lisa is pointing to the right anser I think. The eazyest way to do it is to make sure the 3 images are the same size in pixels.. in photoshop crop each one out in to a seprat image for that view plain. check the size of each one.. and what ever is the largest number in X or Y you use canvase size to add more res to the smaller croped images. that way there all the same size both in the picture and in res space, when you put them in maya you will not have a scale problem that way.. just try to get the image plains right in there location.
I can remember where there is a very good tutorial on preparing orthographic image planes in photoshop, and then importing them into Maya. It can be found at www.3d-palace.com (sorry for plugging another site ) - you will have to login to this site though if you wish to download the tut. It can be found under the free Maya tutorial section, and it is in the first part of the Jaguar tutorial. There is also, of course, an image plane tutorial on this site:
