Hi I just started doing my first model on 3ds max for the Holden HQ and i used these blueprints http://i.imgur.com/E8v11C4.jpg sized them up in photoshop but them i think im completely messed something up in 3ds max with the size or placing Here are some screenshots to give u a better idea of my problems if there are any (Material Editor)
Your Planes need to be sized according to real life measurements, not according to your photoshoped (pixels) blueprints. So 1st of all, change your units according to your plans or measurements you have. It's far easier to use metres or centimetres than to be using feet as the 1st image would indicate you are using. Once this has been changed, then type into the Lenght the actual lenght and width of the car from the left panel to the right panel, and from the bottom of the car to the top of the roof. This will give you the most accurate model (you want to acheive) in size to work with..
