[@StarCaledonia]

Not just reference images, also snapping! Thank you ❤

[@making-things]

@@StarCaledonia Happy I could help. Take care.

[@scottmen7]

This was very useful. Thanks!

[@making-things]

Thanks Scotty. Appreciate it. Looking forward to seeing what you make!

[@Goranium_235]

I was having trouble inserting and using photos in the background. Thank you so much for showing me a good way to do it

[@making-things]

It makes me happy to hear that. Thank you for taking the time leave a comment. I appreciate it. Take care.

[@BluelineDesignStudio]

This was super helpful! I followed what you showed for a front view and side view...REALLY helped me to sculpt a character quickly. Something I literally just did was after I brought in the reference as a square (which was bigger than what I needed) I trimmed the plane and it didn't distort the reference! Thank you again. :)

[@making-things]

I love to hear that! Thanks for the comment.

[@mindwhacker]

this video and 2nd workflow is super helpful!! Thanks for explaining this!

[@making-things]

Yes. I find that much more useful than the reference image in case where you need to match a blueprint.

[@jontur]

Nice!! The best way to use reference images!!🙌🏽

[@making-things]

I'm glad it helped jontur. I know it's worked out much better for me, so it's nice to hear it's useful. Take care

[@TechSavyMom]

Thank you so much, the dense mesh for my picture plain wasy issues. I was hoping there was a way to fix that

[@making-things]

Very welcome. Glad to hear it. Take care.

[@CorinneIsIn]

This is sooooo helpful! Thanks. BTW, you're really good at teaching.

[@making-things]

I'm not crying, you're crying. This was a very lovely comment. Thank you so much! Who knew Nomad would bring me so much emotional therapy? That was very validating, I really appreciate the kind words. I am a person with a lot of self-doubt, but a stronger desire to help others, so this really made my day.

شرحك ممتاز جدا نريد مزيدا من الدروس ... شكرا جزيلا لك

[@making-things]

شكرا لك، وأنا أقدر كلماتك الرقيقة. أنا أعمل على فيديو جديد. وآمل أن يكون ذلك قريبا.

[@ملكالاحساس-ح1ه]

Great video thx

[@making-things]

Thank you. I appreciate the kind words.

[@spideychan17]

I've been searching for the 2nd method for a while, finally i got it. I'm glad that you posted this. But I have a doubt. what about the back view? when set ref for front its shows on the back toooo. what to do?

[@making-things]

Glad to hear it. Yes, you can turn off the backside of the plane. If you tap on the the cog icon in the top right for “Display Settings” and scroll down, somewhere in the middle of the menu is a “Two Sided” checkbox. Just uncheck it to turn it off. Hope that helps.

[@mythologiXR]

Great video, you did an amazing job of breaking it down. I just wanted to ask what program you’re using for your screen recording to show your touches and pencil actions?

[@making-things]

Hey myth, thank you. You can turn on the pencil, touch, and mouse indicators in the Display Settings. Just look for the indicator section and enable it.

[@jisasyttv2019]

Hello, Do you know how to easily create a support stand? Example is a support stand from pokemon scale world, that exactly support the pokemon. I want to know how to do it properly. how to support there stance

[@making-things]

Do you have a link to an image? Perhaps I can figure it out if you share an image. I'm not familiar with the type of stands Pokemon use.

[@jisasyttv2019]

@ images.app.goo.gl/cg7wBnh3xtuyFDQU7 i dont know if you can view these

[@AT-gu8by]

Is the scaling ratio accurate, though ?

[@making-things]

You bring up a great point that I missed. Because I was working with two dimension values that had 4 digits, moving the decimal after the first number was fine, but in a 1600 x 900 image it would be 1.6 x 0.9.

[@AT-gu8by]

@@making-things Thank you.

[@making-things]

@@AT-gu8byWelcome!

[@IsisNiko]

okay, ive been losing my mind trying to make a reference plane, because, for whatever reason , even when i follow along exactly with what you're doing, my reference image does not show up when i switch out the color texture. i dont know whats going on and its really frustrating! do you have any idea what kind of setting might be causing problems?

[@IsisNiko]

i ended up just re-installing nomad, which seemed to do the trick. not sure what setting was causing problems

[@making-things]

Sorry to hear that. Any chance you can share your Nomad file with me? You can send to [e-mail]

[@gallium69723]

you were likely on the wrong shading mode, this needs to be on lit or unlit to work, does not work in matcap

[@making-things]

Great point. I was in Lit PBR mode for this video. If you are in Matcap, this wouldn't work.

[@martincanadell1375]

My reference plane disappears when I select another object. Any idea why?

[@making-things]

Any chance I could see a screenshot of when you do see the plain vs when you do not? It would be very helpful if the screenshot showed the Scene menu open. I have two thoughts. If you tapped solo at a some point, it may still be on. Soloing makes non-active items disappear. The other thought would be if you had the check mark off in the Scene.

[@martincanadell1375]

@@making-things Hi and thanks for your response! I rearanged my scene and it's suddenly working. I'll try to recreate the issue to keep track of it. Where can I send you the screenshots?
