Repaints: Real Air- Lancair Legacy

[Flyingdreamz]

I have 3 paints I have created for the legacy

Carbon X
Jcom's repaint of Carbon X
Race 98

they all are just drag in the folder and then add this to the aircraft.cfg

Please remember to replace the "x" in the [fltsim.X] box to correspond with aircraft already in the .cfg

This link will take you to Skydrive.com. Please do not post this link anywhere else, keep the paints inside the community. Thank you and enjoy.

Any advice on doing repaints? I would like to work on some for another plane. What paint program do you use, where do I get a template to work on, how do I keep the plane's texturing (metal contact joints, rivets, etc.) when putting in a color scheme? Any tutorials that you know of?

Those repaints look great. Nice work!

Copout, here is a great tutorial for getting started. There are easier ways but I feel this gives a great understanding of alpha layers and repainting without proper paint kits..

In place of Photoshop, you can use a program called GIMP which is free, though I do recomend using PS as its a lot more robust.
