I use Gimp for everything.

Historical subjects, I take photos or find an image and using perspective I square up panels (then tweak the image because perspective causes distortions). If I have dimensions that helps.

I seem to do lots of carts and coaches (horse-drawn). Those have odd curves and frames, so I make a guess at dimensions. Using the measuring tool, I can usually get close on the first go, but usually have to build and adjust.

I try to convert everything to vector, but sometimes it won't save that way.

So, how do I draw my models? Raster graphics, manual and vector. I really need to learn a 3D modeling program
