This took longer than expected and turned out fairly well, so here is a paintkit for Brett Henderson's Saab 340B at last.

Layered, in various formats (Gimp, Photoshop, etc...) and in the upload queue at SOH and Flightsim.

Hoping to see a few more liveries for this bird in the future. :)

NICE... I've been meaning to put one together.. but geez.. my master original is like 30 layers, with 30 different opacities .. It would take me a week merge them all properly :icon_eek:

You just got a PM regarding the kit. :)


Anyways, it's just eight layers in my version with a focus on the essential parts.

I actually know that "30 layers" issue from my Do-328, but I tend to merge the number of layers down to a maximum of ten or so while keeping track of every element with a text layer.

See the following pic showing the current state of my 328's main texture file:

*Bump*
Version 1.1 of the paintkit is in the pipes at Flightsim and SOH now. Fixed some small issues.


Also, look what one can do with it!

The repaint should also be avaiable tomorrow.
