How to create a Paintkit?

Featured Replies

Hi,

Just wondering if their are any tutorials about how to create a paintkit for aircraft that don't already have one.  I realise that you need to get permission to publish these but once you have that then how do you create the actual paintkit itself?

 

Cheers

Making a paint-kit for your own use only, is never a problem. ( copyright-wise spoken) 

When you made a paintkit and want to publish it , its always wise to ask permission from the maker of the original model (textures) .

So..... thats the simple answer.

 

How to make a paintkit..............................thats another story.

The answer however is even more simple.

 

To make a real paintkit , you must be familiar with painting with layered files.
There are hundereds of tutorials about working with layerd files in painting programs available on the internet.

 

Study these tutorials ( just a few will do) and the moment you are skilled to make layered paintings yourself.....................nobody needs to tell you how to make a paint-kit.
