Part 2: Adding the heavy panels and simple details
This is best done by first having something to work on. This can be a schematic, a print of your model (the section your doing), a simple sketch, or if you prefer you can make it up as you go.
This is what I mean by a print of your model (i.e. make a print of the wire frame section you're doing like so).
I will be using the Akira schematic below
First copy only the section you need and then enlarge that section
Now remove any unnecessary details (your doing heavy panels so you don't
need windows, escape pods, markings such as registry numbers etc) and
save it as a Monochrome (so it only consists of 2 colours black and white).
Copy it and place it on a new (blank) colour .bmp so you can now use colours
again. Save it as Beginning.
