Title: Bare Metal Skin
Post by: colmbo on March 19, 2008, 08:07:10 PM

How are you experts doing this?  I'm wanting to skin an airplane that was bare metal...not getting results that look worthwhile.

I'm using Photoshop and I'm new to skinning.

Thanks in advance

Try experimenting with the .material file to your liking.

I would be interested in learning what color/s is/are used to replicate polished aluminum skins as well. I have just downloaded a skin to play with and have no idea where to begin.

What is the .material file?  Is that something in AH?  I'm using Photoshop to produce the skins.
