OK so I downloaded this re-paint for a PMDG 747-400 cause it looked well painted according to the photo's on the web site I pulled it from.
Upon downloading and after Injecting the re-paint to the PMDG 747-400, I ended up with the 1st photo / screen shot, NOT 1 was depicted in the photo of the download.
Closer inspection revealed that it had Aplha / Chrome Texture applied to the Fuseladge, just the Fuseladge, NOT the engine nacelles or the tail.
which made it look "Cheesy" and outright awful and bluntly - "Amateurish" !!!
So, I set out to rid the 747-400 of the Alpha, get rid of it, and the last 4 photos are without the Alpha.
I believe somebody took the original download, and messed with it, then uploaded it.
I really don't see the Original Painter screwing up his fine paint by hiding everything under chrome and "Distorting" the entire paint, it'd make no sense, that and the fact it looks hideous and awful with the Cheesy Chrome Texture applied, whats the point
It looks Cheesy, not at all even 1/4 realistic for a paint !!!
So hopefully, this will end the lets apply Cheesy Chrome Alpha textures to Fuseladges and distort them and make them appear cheesy and look like utter S**t !!
1 set photos that have the chrome effect
2nd set of photos "without" the Chrome effect / Alpha applied.
