Modelling from plans (3)

Let's go now to our aeroplane. We will begin a new file (Ctrl+X) and delete the default cube (XKEY). Now, from the front view (NUM1) we add (Shift+A) a circle with 12 vertices.

Then we change to the top view (NUM7) and load the top plan as a background image ("View->Background image"). Ensure we have the circle active in edit mode (TAB if needed) with all the vertices selected (AKEY if needed), and scale it to adjust to the fuselage profile.

Now we extrude (EKEY) the circle along the Y axe (YKEY) to create a new cross-section. We should try to create sections where there is a change of shape. Each time we must grab (GKEY) and scale (SKEY) the new section to adjust it to the fuselage.
