Making it look like the real thing

Postby forfun » Sat Dec 11, 2004 7:15 pm

Hey

How do you guys make the aircraft you make in gmax the same as the real thing does?

I just don't get it, It's soo hard
Now if something goes without saying, then why do people say it??

#1 - practice.

#2 - do read through the different tutorials, and

#3 - play with your graphics/imaging program - learn what it can and can't do.

Many times a good repaint is the product of many hours of patient work and rework, and zooming in to the pixel level is not unheard of.
