      hi i have a question about sketchups photo matching feature. im trying to trace over a picture of a stealth bomber. ive added the pic through camera, then i trance the outline, now my my question is, do i have to leave the view as 2d perspective? if i try to make it a 3d perspective, or rotate the camera, the outline gets all distorted and weird looking/out of form. so common sense tells me that i need to keep the shape/outline in the 2d realm, and instead or adding all the 3d through the 2d outline, i need to just create a basic 2d shape and turn it into a 3d form by push pull?
