Thanks Chris, If your referring to adding a black layer, multiply and setting the opacity to 76% I have done that as well. :unsure:

Working on some livery for my VA, I consider myself to be comfortable with Photoshop CS6, I was able to paint the PMDG 777 and the Twin Otter Extended with no issues at all. This one is throwing me for a loop and I cant figure out for the life of me what is causing the problem. I'm attaching screenshots to help show the issue I'm running in too. If I was painting a P-51 or something I'd probably be thrilled. These shots don't do the problem justice. This is an incredibly 'wet' or icey looking result. This 2nd image was restarted with a vanilla PSD downloaded again from PMDG's website. I painted the Nacelles and put a simple red stripe on the rear. The same red RGB code was used yet they are totally different. No other edits were done, from there they were exported using the NVidia plugin for photoshop. I've tried using both a WHITE and a BLACK for the alpha channel without success. I've never run into an issue like this and PMDG hasn't responded to my support ticket.</p> - I've Tried this on (2) different installs of FSX and also sent a copy off to a fellow VA pilot, he saw the same result so I've eliminated it being a hardware issue. I've got to be missing a rogue layer or something in photoshop I'd appreciate any advice or guidance to find an updated paintkit. <p>Thanks in advance,</p>
