Re: Learning to paint...

Sorry, guy's but this is getting far too heavy for this time of night.

Regards

Re: Learning to paint...

Now you have joined us happy band of painting nutters Kevin......Whats your next project mate..... :roll: ;-) Tony Hmmm.... I have two in mind. One is B727-100 based (the Paintkit for this seems so much more complex than for the DC-9). The other is a DC-8-21 (or any DC-8 with the same fuselage leng...

Re: Learning to paint...

One thing that I appear to have missed ( as pointed out on Retro AI), is addition of metalic textures to the engines. I have no idea how to achieve this. This is my first paint, and what I have produced is simply from opening the paintkit in Photoshop Elements 3 and seeing what I could do by trial a...

Re: Learning to paint...

Thanks for your help and encouragement, guys. I think it's finished now. I've added the detail to the engines, anti-aliased the 'Royal Dutch Airlines' titling and also that of 'DC-9'. I haven't added the aircraft name, below the cockpit or, the reg under the wing. As this is just an AI aircraft, I t...

Just my luck - checked Flightsim.com earlier, to find someone posted an AI KLM DC-9 about a week ago (after I'd searched for weeks). At least I've made a start and can use the skill gained, for other projects...

Re: Learning to paint...

A small update... 1. Thinned the blue stripe, as per Garry's suggestion (sorry, Garry. I misunderstood 'too deep' for meaning the colour rather than the height). 2. Adjusted the white stripe to match. I just need to add the engine details and then I think it's finished. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/...
