Chrome reflections???

Postby suburbanboston » Mon Sep 01, 2003 12:32 am

I have both Photoshop 7 and Paint shop pro 8, and I'm currently repainting the Meljet 747 model 3.  I would like to add a nice chrome effect to the engines and maybe the whole aircraft.  I've searched on the net and on the programs for any tips on getting that effect, no luck.  I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could help me on this issue.
