Help with A318 paint kit

Post by JasperP »

Could somebody help me with the A318 paintkit? Because when I open the 'fuse' files inside the paintkit, it's shows the livery of a Frontier A318. I want an emtpy fuselage! So where can I download an blank paintkit??

Greetings,

Jasper

I had exactly the same problem with the paint kit of A318. But I didn’t care. I first painted it at the “complete fuse” psd file and then I pasted it over the original fuse files. I suggest you do the same.

Sorry to say, but I'm new with painting. And I just succeeded painting an aircraft, so if someone can tell me how to paste the 'complete fuse' over 'fuse' 1,2 and 3?

Thank you in advance! :lol:

In fuse_full: Select all (ctrl-A), Copy merged (Ctrl-shift-C); switch to fuse/1/2/3: Paste (ctrl-V), change blending to Multiply, align, change blending back to Normal

There's a dropdown box on the Layers palette that should say 'Normal', click on it and select 'Multiply'

Ok, done that. But for the other side, how do I flip everthing so it will be correct?

Edit > Transform > Flip Horizontal after copying and pasting OR Image > Image Rotation > Flip Canvas Horizontal in fuse_full before copying

I have the same problem.

The paintkit seems flattened...!

Is there a blank paintkit somewhere?
When multiplying the layer, I just get a FRONTIER background with my textures :D

Zoom in and line up the layer you pasted with the background "FRONTIER" part. Then change the blending back to "Normal" - the FRONTIER part will disappear behind the new layer and your paint will be on top (so the FRONTIER part won't show up)
