I am planing to model based on Wei Wang 2D pictures.
Did try Maya but decided to test modeling in Houdini.
My artist page is here:

My question is:
is the Background image usage best method or is there some other method also?
My concern here is that:
1.) Can i see front and side view images same time in perspective view if needed?
2.) If i create an element for example box and i need to model from that using ref image how can i see image same time as i see box object but cant see image as object is front of image.

I tried different modes also.
xray etc but same issue. I see oibject but not the picture behind it.
But need to see both same time.
