All that grey is Reeeaaaally bad for easy coloring y'know. You'd be better off with white skins with just the lines, or light skins with actual highlights and reflections onnem...

Is this just an art project or....?

The graphics need to be in very specific locations in order to map onto the model correctly. I'd hate for people who didn't really know the process to spend a bunch of time on something that won't actually transfer to their vehicle.

I think everyone is missing the point, this is raw data. not the finished product, that is why it is labeled "PROJECT". The image before JPEG blur and resize is black and white with a cross thatch in the areas you see as "grey" @20K by 20K + pixels. It is much easier to deal with detail at high resolution then resize to what is needed. (note: I used to do graphics layup at CSX intermodal.) The finished product will be black and white images without shading of any sort. This was posted cause some of the others involved wanted to see what the raw data looked like.

Dodger, try to supress your prejudice in wanting to make comment towards something I post... Dont go make me quote the TOS for you. If anything try to show some humility and listen to the message not the messanger.

This is not about me, this is a project for all of Dark-wind to share in. I will provide a usable product, free of charge. All the final skins will be posted on a wiki link for players to download, color, and submit

I'm actually wondering now if this community deserves my efforts, since it's just a bunch of crybabies always questioning everything i do and why i do it

after considering this...nope. I'm not making hundreds of skins and 3d models now
