Hello all,
I just finished a couple of repaints (one for the XR1, the other for the Vanguard [XR5]), and I notice a distinct lack of "realistic" quality between what I've done and what I see others do.
So I was curious how this is accomplished.
I am using Corel PhotoPaint 12 (I prefer the UI over Photoshop CS2, but I have that aswell... which is how I convert from PSD to DDS).
What I mean by this, is that my repaint appears rather flat... it doesn't have that nice "used" look to it... I'm not really sure how better to put this. I see, in the XR1 Repaint Kit there is a layer for "scorched", which is awesome... but I'd like to dirty it up a bit more, hehehe.
_O.K._
