Getting a pic in blender

I need to get a pic in blender screen to use as a reference (get the shape right) and I dont know how to do that. Thanks

Hello.

To use a background image for modelling, do the following in a 3D view:

  1. Go to either Top view, Side view or Front view. Ensure the view is orthographic, not perspective.
  2. Go to “View–>Background image…”
  3. Click the “Use Background Image” button
  4. Press the image button (the one that looks like a folder).
  5. Find the correct image and press “Select Image”
  6. You can then ajust the size and/or close the dialog that is still open.

I hope this helps.
