Where to start??

Post by crippy »

I have the C182 and I'd really like to re-paint it to the same skin as I used to fly a real C182 in real life and have some pictures to go off of.

I have Gimp 2........aand that's basically it.

I downloaded the C182 Paint kit and imported it to Gimp2 and it looked inverted to me. The inner rim was black and the tire was white...

I'm a bit of a *noob* as I've never don't Photoshop / painting before.

Does anyone have any program suggestions (Free or cheap); Basic steps; or a guide they could link?


Thanks! I'm really interested in learning how to re-paint aircraft!
