Paint Question

Featured Replies

Hi All Happy New Year :-)I have a quick question for all you expert painters :-)I am trying to paint a line on the PMDG 737-600 engine pod, however, I seem to be running into difficulties regarding its trueness.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/55615.jpgThe line towards the back is pinched and irregular. I know this is down to the model shape and that I may need to paint a skewiff line to match, what I am asking is this, is there an easy way to do it? The line seem fairly comlex to paint if not. Is there any way of unwrapping the pod mesh to paint it? I am at a loss except for spending a good deal of time guestimating.Any offer of assistance greatly received.ThanksNigel.

Nigel,you are right, this is down to the model shape, and there's no way to unwrap the mesh to paint it, on the 600's, the engine texture is mapped from top down, on the 700's, it's from the side.Regards,Bob Joneshttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/devteam.jpgwww.precisionmanuals.com

Thanks Bob,Much appreciated.Happy New YearNigel
