|
|
Hey I wanna paint a fictional aircraft for Barbados but I wanna know how should I start painting. I have Adobe Photoshop 7, DXTBMP, FSRepaint Demo to see the aircraft without having to load fs9 and the POSKY B73G Paintkit.
When painting do I have to paint along the sections of the sides of the plane? how do I paint without messing up the windows?
When I compared Project Opensky Delta the paints looked photo realistic how did they get it to looks that way?
Can someone just give me the steps or probably a tutorial on Flight Simulator 2004 Repaints.
Thanks

| regarding the window question: What I normally do is zoom in close to the window and make an outline of it then copy and paste it into the picture and do that for all the windows, then merge them down into one layer. Photoshop 7 might have different terminology as I use the Gimp |

Sorry guys, they were good a while (year) ago. Found the new link.

Look towards the bottom. You want paint lessons 1-3.
And, since I'm in the giving mood, here's another.
