Since I'm very new to this sort of thing, what tips, advice would you have for attempting to skin a plane?

Anyone wanna do a basic idiot guide (me idiot!

) I'm talking more about how to do the graphical side and keeping rivet/panel effects etc.

Thanks

I have photoshop, but wanted tips on methods rather than what to use.

Layers. Check out Mipoikel's black dora thread, I think he shows a little bit on it there.
