Featured Replies

Hello all,First time posting in this forum so here goes!!Basically I am wanting to learn how to repaint the PMDG aircraft 1900 and he 737NG.What tools do I need for a start? I have downloaded the paintkit for the 737NG but it is just a series of files that I have no idea what to do with?Are there any detailed docs that are like a walkthrough! (easy life you think to yourself!)Can anyone give me some guidence on what I need to do to repaint these fantastic aircraft with the shiny effects?Any help would be much appreciated, as I notice here are people in this forum that do this?Thanks in advance.Mark Podbery

Hi Mark,most painters use either Adobe Photoshop, or JASC Paint shop Pro, this link is to one of the best explained tutorials I know http://www.calclassic.com/repaint.htm it will tell you all you need to get started ;).Regards,Bob Jones

Bob,Thanks very much for that link. So will this allow me to repaint the PMDG aircraft as they lookwhen we download the liveries?Thanks againMArk

Mark,yes it will allow you to use the PMDG paint kit, although they won't look completely the same, when I made the paint kit's, I left out some of the visual details, the parts are there, just you have to make some of details on your own ;).Regards,Bob Jones

Hi, i already asked this once but while we are at repaints I'll give it another try.. Can anybody help me in creating a bare metal repaint?I already did a couple nice repaints but the bare metal seems to be a bit too difficult... Any help would be appreciated. Thank you, Luca

Only wanting to repaint the Precision Manuals aircraft with all the nice reflections!?ThanksMark
