Hi Guys,How we doing :-)Reading the forums of late is making me more depressed than the wait. It's a bit upseting reading some of the slatings PMDG are getting after all there hard work. I know I have had my whinge to get things of my chest but thats really all it is, a chest clearing exercise. I know PMDG want the best for there customers, who else are they doing it for? I appologise if I upset anybody. I realise that the right thing to do is alternate therapy.. soooooI decided that I cant be loitering the forums reading all this depressing stuff, reminding myself of what I havnt got :-(I decided to try and learn photoshop and make a Ryan Air livery. Woo hoo. Its quite exciting stuff. Expecially when its all put to gether and put on the plane. Trouble is, I'm not a painter, I'm a lover.. :) j/kAny way, I am attaching the work in progress so far and would like to here your critisisms so far. One thing that bothers me is the yellow band throught the midrift of the aircraft. It tapers slighty as it goes under the belly of the a/c. Is this normal in reality or is it a persepctive issue? Also, how close is my Ryanair logo. It took forver to do, I since find a better way but ah well, we live and learn.And last but not least. Too you painter xperts, whats the best way to dirty up the a/c in photoshop? Smudge?Oh, almost forgot, I find that after pasting the psd files into the targa ffile there is some over lapping of textures in the fuse_t file. Also, the tail fins dont map exactly on to the a/c. The logo looks just dandy in the bmp file. All lined up. But once its on the a/c some bits are cut off? Any help appreciated :-)Thanks for the feedback guys.http://www.nsdavison.eclipse.co.uk/fuse_1_T.jpghttp://www.nsdavison.eclipse.co.uk/PMDG_Tail_T.JPGGood luck and Merry Christmas to one and all.Nigel
