Blueprints (or maybe i'm dumb)

oh my god i'm going insane here. i can't or i don't know how to put the blueprints in place. look at this saxo:


It's not thye first and i'm going insane!!!

I viewed and re-viewed the blueprint section of The Audi A3 Tutorial for 3ds Max
Creator: Blittze

but still...

I just started modelling for a couple of days and this is making me go crazy. :x it's the 3rd car i have to dump

sometimes (a lot !!), the blueprint is just not accurate , just try to improvise , anyway , here's a video i made for cg-cars.com , although some people here said they can't see anything ( i don't know what's wrong , it works fine on my computer )

looks pretty close... try sliding the "side view" plane down a tad to line it up a bit better, then simply use it as a guide.

well thanks. i've had no contact with 3d what so ever until the alst 2 days. and i love it! besides the blueprints, what do you think of 15 min of work? is it good enough or should i try some other hobbie ?

Nitro i was watching the vid and i've been setting up the blueprints in a different way. i'm gonna try that one.

for two days' time, you have a better grasp of how to make the shapes than I had at that time.

a couple oddities in the top view though... you should really try to make your mesh flow smoothly as possible... some of your edges that go from the front of the car to the back (windshield side) of the hood are kinda zigzagged

Yes, for only a couple of days and 15 minutes of work, you have a good grasp on things it appears. Keep working with it.
