Title: Looking for any help possible!
Post by: Kazaa on April 12, 2009, 02:04:56 PM

So I’m really getting into my Photoshop, I’ve done a few projects now and I feel that I have a good understanding with every tool at my exposal. I would like to start experimenting on skinning 3D objects, I was wondering if any of you gents have any good websites or information on skinning techniques or another other information that I might find useful?

FYI, I already know about ah-skins.com.

Thanks in advance. <S> :aok

haha, well I would want to start on the Spitfires first as they are my main inspirations, however I see the La7 is lacking in the skins department atm.

I see Kev is back, I would love to pick his brain on vent.

I put one together a while back. Far from comprehensive, but a decent step-by-step for skinning.

Your individual photoshop skills are up to you, though!
