Which gives us a straightened side view. | |||

Before moving on to comparing against a reference image, lets move some of the cross section references inside the fuselage area so they don't get cropped off later. You can copy/paste them and then use the arrow keys with the move tool to move only on one axis. We'll also take this opportunity while we are manually editing to clean up the extra drawing lines. | |||

There is no need to check for symmetry for the side view, so lets move on to verifying the accuracy against a reference image. Import the reference image as a new layer and move and scale as necessary to align it with the drawing. Here we can see the same nose issues we saw in the top view, but also see some canopy and exhaust issues. We will make note of these for later and keep the image as a layer in the master copy so we can show it again when we are working on these areas. | |||

We can now crop it tight to the outside of the drawing, keeping in mind we need the same buffer ahead of the nose as we did in the top view. | |||
== Front View == | |||
We will process the front view similarly to the top view, with a symmetry and reference image check, but like the side view we won't worry too much about height. I'm really only including the front view in the tutorial because it has some major inaccuracies that we will fix in the scan itself. | |||
This is the drawing after I have straightened it and added a reference image as a new 50% transparent layer on top. As you can see the wings have waaaay too much dihedral. I didn't need a reference image to know the dihedral was a bit off, but it will help us set it straight (so to speak). | |||
