Re: Problems with (german) fuselage numbers

Hello to all, thanks a lot for all the replies!

I´ve attached 2 screenshots of the problem I´m working at the moment. I´m a skinning beginner of course.
(The shown a/c is based on a public template by revolver.)

Yes, the main problem is "How do I get sharp and even edges". On other skinners work they have perfect sharp numbers and markings but I didn´t figure out how they did this.
Asking some of the best and best known (also for templates) of them seems useless, I never got any (email) reply.

May be it helps when I describe how I made the shown numbers:
I installed a font and then typed the numbers of it in a photoshop psd. Made the stroke around in photoshop and then downsized the whole thing to its final size.

The result is not satisfying, especially when compared with other skinners works.

Thanks for any help, Don
