Re: Painting tips

I am pretty new to all of this.
Having just created my first vinyl decal and uploaded it to the Storefront, I have sold one so far!
I spent nearly 5 hours creating it and I generally pretty pleased with the results. (A Clockwork Orange Logo)
I watched this video and picked up a few tips. Such as highlighting edges etc.
Having said that I am very surprised that there is very little in the way on tutorials on Forza 3. The official site's has nothing, their forum does not seem to have much there.

There are some videos on You Tube for Forza 2 which I guess will help.
I know some people have send its best to just learn by yourself but I have very little artistic ability and I really would like to try something a bit more adventurous next time.
I think I have spent as much time if not more time in the paint section than I have racing!
It makes a pleasant change from just shooting stuff, though that will change when Modern Warfare 2 is released…

Re: Painting tips

This may give you a bit of help: Forzamotorsport.net Forums - TUTORIAL THREAD **LINKS IN FIRST POST**

Most of it is from Forza 2 but most of it applies to Forza 3 aswell!
