Just testing the fuselage paintwork. I'll have to totally re-write the tail though, as for some unknown reason, at dusk or night, it's not only a different color to the fuselage blue, but I have the MS Flight Simulator text, in black and mirrored on it. Quite where that came from I have no idea!!

FINAL IMAGES











So far, I've discovered that it's not DX10 compatible it night due to some really odd occurrences with the FSX logo/text appearing all over the panels, upside-down and mirrored!

I'm happy though, seeing as it's only my second livery

Not sure when it'll be on AVSim as it's a fair old size, so I'll probably have to upload them both overnight, once I've sorted out the cfg's so they can both be installed at the same time.

Looks good. Figured out the pen tool then?

I had a few moments of confusion!

The first was when I had a single layer bmp and needed to add the pink, fading stripes to the tail. A bit of messing around with the blending options got the yellow logo to shine though. Then I had to fool about with the pink join where the tail meets the fuselage.

The biggest pain was painting in the white of the wing butresses!

Plenty to improve on next time.......and many little mistakes, costing hours, that I won't make again!

Well, it looks like you're learning fast!

I knew that my major stumbling block would be photoshop as soon as I'd been sorted out on the other factors by posting here. Patience and time are two things I have a lot of!

But photoshop makes no sense. Never has, never will!!
