Good afternoon all,
Using Photoshop 6. However, I just need to learn a good technique, so Im sure any program used would be about the same.
I have skinned (panel lines and rivets) a 262 using Osprey and Squadron Signal resources for AH2 and have to admit..damn it looks good
With exception of a few stretches on the model that I worked around I am quite happy with it. My problem lies with painting the skin itself. I have used every technique of blurring, opacity changes, burn, dodge, overlay, ect. I still have yet to paint what I feel is "accurate" to a proper German Moray effect (well, thats what I call it.) Where the paint scheme will fade from a very dark base color at top to a fadeing out "mottel?" at the bottom 3rd of the fuselage, just above the wing structure.
Anyway. I have seen perfect examples of models painted in this forum and was wanting to know if someone could possibly write a tutorial on the proper technique, or could give a brief explanation in this thread. I have looked throughout the website and have found nothing on the subject.
The target outcome is to reproduce a skin in the paint-scheme of White 8 of Kommando Nowotny.
Help me Obi-wan's. Ur my only hope.
