Ok. First: Nice combined. :)
You can called it a "problem" but in step 11 you say by yourself: 12. I know the line tool is confusing..but after you play with it some you will get the hang of it....Anyways. Well, i try't but with no result. Because it's a little bit confusing, thats why i need some hulp. Then the "problem", i dont know how i have to do step 11, exactly. On the attach. you can see exactly what i mean.

Ok...what you are doing is making an outline of the line you are about to draw. So you set the outline (4 points) then go BACK with the ADD A NODE tool and add "curveable" nodes.

What you see in the pic you attached is points 1,2 and 3 and then point 4 just closes the line.

Its confusing I know....but if you mess around with the line tool you will see what I mean. With it you create an outline, then use the pen tool with a little (+) sign called ADD NODE that will allow you to curve it.

Ok. No problem. I have fix it already. one more question, in step 18 you have wride this note: "NOW ITS TIME TO MAKE THE SELECTION, JUST THE SAME AS BEFORE.....BUT NOW COLOR IT BLUE...SEE BELOW". You mean with this step, totaly the same selection or only the selection where the blue have to come?
Thats my last question.

to create curved sections in psp:


open up the pen tool, in the swatch setttings, make the stroke colour the colour you want and the fill setting to be blank

do the shape you want on a new layer

then convert it to a raster layer and fill it in using the paint brush


(its hard to explain without pictures, sorry)

Okay Gary, I also have a question about step 11, I do what you say (I think :) ) but after i click the 3rd time you say, on the back of the fuselage, it makes it all red, and curved and stuff (See pic). How do you make just the outline?

EDIT: Nevermind, I figured it out. :)

What? <_<

Nobody says "Yea, ok" to the computers that you guys have! Jeez.. those things are unbelievable.

Hehe, I actually didn't go out and buy another Photoshop version, I just traded 7.0 with 6.0 with one of my friend's dad down my street.

Sorry about the absolute dumbest question(s) ;)

1) step 5 lesson 1 - "....now we have to prepare the plane for painting and editing in photoshop. Open IMAGE TOOL......"

Image tool? What is that? Photoshop component?

2) I have photoshop 5.5... should I have 6.0 installed?

Sorry once again!
