what technic do you use for your repaints?

1) copying parts from the orginal
2) painting on your own
3) copying from other repaints


I use the first technic!



Liran Bar, Israel

it all depends on the type of repaint (photo realistic, etc.) but generally 1 and/or 2

Sometimes all three.

#1, I paint over an original so I automatically use parts of it.

#2, I do a lot of this

#3, I usually use other aircraft textures plus real photos to get the coloring right

I usually paint the aircraft I'm repainting blank (exept for details) and then paint on that.  I guess that's a mixture of #'s 1 and 2.  ;)

Are there any specail files or specific sizes that have to meet a criteria.

I try to use the "other" method.  Due to a disability my mouse and don't always talk the same language, so I request "Others" to repaint or paint for me.

(I think that qualifies as "other") he says tongue in cheek  ::)
