I would love to but do not know how to adapt the repaint onto my other a/c. So for the moment its only new liverys i am capable of. I suppose if i use photoshop more because at the moment i am only really using ms paint (believe it or not)

Nice job Liam.
I understand how hard repaints are. Let me rephrase that ... repainting is easy, what Guy and Jon accomplish is difficult. That is first hand experience talking. <<



Nice job on the repaint.

As is the case with repaints, it gets better and better each time!sorcerer Great job Liam, is that the FSD Seneca? Try the old Island Air: http://www.photovation.net/HTMAirliners1/ISLANDAIRFSet.htm no wait, I will!:lol:

BTW Ralph, I haven't forgotten about the F1 ATR paints!

Thnx matey, No its the Carenado Seneca (http://www.carenado.com/ecommerce/buscador.php3?id_producto=74). I would try that livery but since they used a Piper Chieftain and not a Seneca im not too keen. I will give it a go if i get bored. We could have a competition stuart, we will both paint it and ppl can vote on which they think is better without knowing who did each one. (of course i will lose though)

Good idea!

Quick question: are you using DXTbmp to compile your textures? If not, use it!

If you are, what format are you saving them in? The textures look a bit burry, make sure you have 'Use mip maps when saving' not ticked. Also, the most common texture formats to save in are DXT3 (small size, lower quality) or 32bit (mindblowing quality, larger size). Sorry if you know this already, just thought it might help...sorcerer

Yer no worries i welcome all help. Yes i do use DXTbmp and this reapint was saved as DXT5 file. It probably seems blurry as it was done in paint. I will look into more detail. Also is 32bit the same as DXT 5?
