Step 13

Now just drag and drop the slot we just now mapped with an image to the top viewport and you have to click on “Show Standard Map in Viewport” button before closing the box.

Step 14

Now RMB on top viewport and select “Smooth + Highlights” option as shown below.

Step 15

Great we have finally been able to map the top view image on the plane created in top viewport as shown below.

Step 16

Now I feel that you might have got some idea on mapping an image on the object. In the same way let us map remaining views. Now let us start mapping side view in left view port by creating a plane with the dimensions and segments values as shown below.

Step 17

Now add side view to the newly created plane as shown below.

Step 18

Now RMB on all the viewports and click on “Configure” as shown below.

Step 19

Under “Rendering Method” tab select both “Force 2-Sided” and “2 Lights” options as shown below.

Step 20

Now add front view by creating a new plane with value of parameters for length, width and segments as shown below.

Step 21

Now let us map an image to the object as explained from step five to nine, and the resultant image would be as shown below.

Step 22

We have completed creating front, side and top view and now let us create rear view. You can create rear view with out creating a new plane object by using mirror tool. Select the front view and click on “Mirror” tool button as shown below.

Step 23

When the mirror dialog box appears select “X” for mirror axis and click on “Copy” radio button as shown below.

Step 24

Now drag the copy using “X” axis and there you are with new object created as shown below.

Step 25

Now let us add an rear view image map to the mirrored plane object as explained from step five to nine the let us plane each views as shown below.

Step 26

Once you feel that all the views are properly positioned, then you have to lock all the views along “Z” axis so that you would be able to move the views only along “Z” axis. Click on “Hierarchy” button and select all the axis except “Z” as shown below. You have to do the same for all the views.

Thank you.
