Default Maping

I have this project that I will need to model an object from a picture.

I wonder how I can aply the picture to Modelar to star making the model on top of it. This way I belive that the model will be the same exatly shape from the original.

The tabasco tut, don't show the procedure to do so.

Thanks

Go to the display options and click on the backdrop tab.
It's pritty easy to understand what to do then.
I think the first McLaren tutorial covers this and it's free.

If you still need some advice, then download the 'setting up modeller backdrops' tutorial from here:
