Painting using reflective textures.

[Guest]

Hello everyone! In particular to those who have repainted planes.I have just learned how to repaint an aircraft...so far, it looks good, but if I want to add reflective textures to a certain parts of the aircraft, how do I go about that? And is it possible to make just 1 part of a bmp reflective (chrome) while leaving the rest as is? I have the DTXBmp program, but I am confused on exactly how to proceed after this point.BTW, I am using PSP 7.0 for my graphics editor.Thank you in advance.Brian A. NeumanWoodbury, MN

It is pretty good if you have a model that already has reflective textures applied - if you are making a model from scratch then there is a lot of additional bits that it doesn't mention !! A search of the design forum will probably fill in the blanks !!!!
