My first repaint - Milviz Cessna 310 R

[Leen3131cs 107]

There are settings for brightnes and opacity in the layer-properties.

There are sliders to make adjustements to the settings.

 

have a look at this  https://www.dropbox.com/s/tl9fuo3hajrm1zk/test.psp?dl=0

Its vital to know how to work with layers , colorsettings etc. 
This basic knowledge is vital for being able to do good repainting.
The internet is full of instructions about Photoshop and other programs.

I'll revisit those links, thanx!

If I select the rivets layer - there is nothing in the properties box and the adjustments are greyed out in the menu. If I select the square icon in the layer, it says mask - there is density & feather in the properties box but no brightness. In the menu - images - adjustments there is a brightness/contrast selection but using those sliders seems to have no effect. I tried creating an adjustment layer immediately above the rivets - moving the slider there also had no effect.

Is there another place to find brightness adjustments? In the paint kit, I'm using the cessna310_ext_01_orig.psd file.

Won't get a chance to get back at it until tomorrow evening but I'll check out those videos.

Thanx for the help.
