The importance of Schematics


When modelling an object, you would generally use reference images. This is generally a good idea when modelling, however using schematics of the object can help speed up the process dramatically. It is easy to find schematics for anything these days. I managed to find schematics for all three of my star wars models which has helped me towards my assignment.




As you can see, they outline the basic shape of the object. This allows you to model your shapes based on these schematics. Here is an example of me using them;


Now you can see how I got the basic shape and detail just using schematics. Sometimes they will not be perfect, this may be because of the image sizes. In my case this is ok as I prefer to just use schematics as a base guide and all my main details come from reference images.
