screwdriver.

HI!

This is the second time I work with rhino,so I need some tips to do this.

I have to model my screwdriver in 3d and I don't know with what I should begin.

my task is to take photos of my screwdriver and add them in the front, top, and right view. Then I change the picture size to the original size of the screwdriver...
I did that, but if I have the shade mode on I don't see the content of the picture and if I have the rendering view on I don't see the lines.

I dont know how to do the grip. It is round and has corner... maybe curves?

Draw the stripes as 2d profiles and project them onto the handle.
