November 25, 20169 yr Author Here is a little customization to the alpha layer and what it does to the shine (still a lot of tweaking to get it right, but with 6 textures for each side of this fuse, you can appreciate why painting this beast takes time! That is 24 total when you factor in each texture map needs its own alpha too. ) In case you weren't aware...some devs use the alpha layer to control reflectivity (or partly). White makes the area non-reflective while black makes it mirrored. You can see the slight difference (the less shiny will appear darker as you see) The door layer is on the textures, and you can see here I removed all the extra pax doors and detailed the one remaining door (2 actually but you can't see the rear door in this pic) I also darkened the base metal, looks much more realsitic now (you usually go through several iterations of the shades to get the one that looks just right.)
