Nothing special other than a regular spec map. Was a bit of a process though. This is just the base texture. Base color and everything. "Blue Thunder" is outlined in black to help give it a more silver chrome look. If left as a regular silver, it appears white basically. (in my experience at least) The shine texture, im sure you are familiar with it. All i did was make the paint a lighter shade of blue and increased the brightness just a hair. Well actually, everything in this texture was brightened. So when the sun hits the truck, this lighter shade will shine and cause that metallic look. and lastly the Spec texture. I just used this for outlining of Blue Thunder. i left the outline as the brightest part to give it the "chrome" affect. I then just heavily darkened everything else. (except for the headlights and MJ logo, totally forgot about those.) It took me a bit to find the right balance between all 3, but it defiinitely came out the way i anticipated. I also did it with Edy's Zombie Hunter. ZH was easier due to it just being a basic solid color. Basically, Main texture + Lighter Main Texture + Dark Spec Texture. Hope that helped a bit! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
