Graingy Survey: How Do You Do Canopies?

42.2k Graingy  one month ago

Of course, this is a broad question.

I’m sure most of you are smart enough to work out what this could entail, so I’ll save my energy and propose on particular question instead:

How do you paint canopies? Reflective? Blue? Something else? What about transparent through glass or canopy blocks? How do you colour those?

Anyways, how you do?

    @hpgbproductions That would be pretty damn bad for me, but my eyes haven't functioned since that one day in '73.

    Gray glass, gloss outside and flat inside
    Flat windows can also be made with hollow glass so the inside isn't reflective
    .
    Also do not use bright blue glass, or i will sneak into your house at night and paint your eyeballs blue

    personally build your interior before the cockpit. however make sure to restrain its size roughly. then cover it, smooth it out, also clear glass under opaque glass is 1 way

    @Graingy I'm not great at making cockpits.
    I have tried before
    came out horribly

    glossy black/dark blue hollow glass fuselages on 5% opacity and trying to somehow make them roundish
    usually i forget the (beams? what do you call the non-glass parts of the canopy?) though.

    steal parts and Jerry rig them together.
    or use the default in-game ones and just rig it to work

    Stolen parts and duct tape
    (Usually just glossy dark blue glass blocks that can only be seen through from the inside where the camera is, and then some silver details for the frame using hollow fuselage pieces)
