3ds max

After the topology was done, I opened the 3d s max program and created a plane. Then by material editor I chose the picture ( psd format) as a bitmap. When the material was applied to the plane I chose UVW map on the modify panel. Using Gizmo, I could move the front and the side pictures to the position I need.

The plane was too dark, so I went to material editor and choosing ''go to parent'' changed the Self- illumination.

Then, holding shift and using rotation gizmo I made perpendicular plane. Both planes were frozen later using the properties.

I write clicked on perspective and configure I chose layout to see front and left views separately.

After that I came to CREATE-SHAPES and chose LINE. I changed drag type to CORNER and in grid and snap settings instead of grid points I clicked on vertex. It makes it easier to overdraw the topology squares on the face.

Finally, after I finished to draw the squares I selected one of the shapes and went to modify panel. With the right click I converted to editable poly so the polygon appeared on the face. On the edit geometry I clicked on attach box and selected all the lines, so one complete surface appeared. At the end I have chosen edged faces, so I could see the topology.
