HSD T-33 120mm EDF

In your spec map bring the color closer to white. Then in the alpha channel start with a medium grey and work closer to black until you get the right result. Blue in the main that will help.

Looking VERY sharp! ! !

Like Abaser and Boof have suggested add a little blue, I`ll add to that, I found that a very very light blue works best, a very light sky blue would be a good place to start as an example, and adjust lighter or darker from there, might take a little experimenting at first, but once you get heading in the right direction you`ll find it pretty quick. ALSO, that CS looks absolutely fantastic Donamy, as well as the jet, great work...!!!! ? ?

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll see what I can come up with.

You can also google “silver RGB value” and find the recommended starting point.

Or find a model from the swaps that has a good metal look and use the colors that designer used.

This is before the last two posts. Do you think I need to enhance the panel lines ?

 

[abaser]

They look good to me. Have you thought about adding them with a bump (normals) map?

I like them. More times than not panel lines are too dark (mine included) and don't look natural but I think yours do. You can see them but they're buried in the plane not sitting on top of it. So I vote keep them that way.

They are bumped also.

 

[abaser]

I have to agree with tech. They look good to me.

The model looks great with the panel lines, awesome color scheme.

works really well for metal parts and adjust the _s file accordingly to the shine you want.

Works great! And gives a great look on spinners and exhausts.

I used it on the "JW polished cowl" CS I did yrs ago. looks real good in RF6.5, haven`t looked at it in 9 yet.

I use the same colour on canopy in the _s file keeps the canopy light and glossy but I'm sure there's better ways ?
