Mother Energy KX-F

Post by dylan22 »

Hey guys this is my first ever attempt at skinning. I had to use stock shading cause I didnt know how to change it. I know it's not the best. But its my 1st attempt so instead of sayin how bad it is, how about some feedback on helpin me get better.

Next time try to make a design for the decals and the put logos over that, instead of just putting logos on the plastic.

Thanks Felipe, the only thing i cant work out is, when i try and colour under the shading on the back fender, the colors are really dull and it looks bad. thats why i just have logo's on there. does anyone know how to fix that the so the colors are brighter. It was fine on the shrouds.

Look in different sections on the layers. Sometimes theres more than one layer for some parts so you need to find the right one.

if you're using gimp, you can just select what you want to change, go under the colors tab and select levels and change stuff around with that, it keeps the original shading too :)

sorry for double, but you can also do the same thing with curves... not just levels...

looks simple and way better tho, people are just waiting for some insane skins and do not apreciate the others anymore. At least you did not make some more monster energy or another replica that are just like crap. Keep up!
