Better than I could do. Watch this vid it may help you with the painting over the details issue.

I use Gimp 2.8, and thanks for the complement. You made me blush. It sure did take a long time to match the stripes on 145. Maybe if I get Trainut's permission, I'll release them!

A recommendation for using black and other really heavy colors. Try to make them a little bit more faded and for black, try not to use straight black. use a very heavy gray, like have V set to 16 and S set to 0. It makes black look much nicer on them.

One question. Im using gimp, so what is V and S. I tried to make it look like that because when I first put it on, everything was at full blast and I was like "whoopsie" lol. ll work on it a little more. Thanks for the advice again!

V = value, S = saturation, in the "change color" dialogue.

I have a question regarding reskinning of GP40-2W undecorated version by Davesnow. How can i change yellow color to white without losing details?

i`m using Photofiltre 7, but also have a Photoshop 7.0 and Gimp. If you know how - please answer

Desaturate & Levels (or curves if your inclined). I don't know Photofilter, so I can't be any more specific then that.

There should be more .tga files in the folder, when you first do Ctrl+Shift+E or Edit in Explorer they should be right there...

This is the Beta version of my DL&W Steamers, with the earlier models needing a fixer-upper.

DL&W 2-8-0 #350 (needs retexturing)

DL&W 2-8-2 #1202 (needs retexturing)

DL&W 2-8-2 #2143

DL&W 4-6-2 #1194 (fictional)

DL&W 4-8-2 #1550

I also plan on making a 4-8-4 using Ben's Steam Construction Template from his site. I also need to model the correct tender trucks.

Sincerely,

 

[watemple]

I like it!

[chris2001trainz2010]
