747 - 200

Found 747 - 100 2D scaled perspective drawing to use.
Will use these drawings for basic reference then modify design accordingly

Reference bitmap (jpeg) size
in 3ds max - standard primatives -  plane - changed size of plane to same as bitmap scaled down (eg 1590 = 159.0 etc)


add other 2 perspectives - align - freeze into position (after deselecting turn frozen objects grey in object properties)


Right click to access object properties

Also may need to access top bar - customize - preferences - configure drivers - tick boxes to allow bitmaps to be displayed in high resolution



if does not work initially - save file, exit and reload.
