OPINION NEEDED- SKIN MODDING

[Royalty]

I am working on a set of camo skins. Here is a preview of what I have done so far:


My questions to you are:
1. Do I need to make the camo transparent so you can still see some of the orginal rocket launcher?
2. When I use the lasso tool do I need to be precise or is it fine as long as I don't touch any other bits of the rocket launcher? As well, if I go over a black bit does that matter?

Thanks

read the tutorial.
yes, you need to make it transparent, but there's special ways which work best\
in general it doesn't matter, but watch out for black bits which are part of the object.

blending modes work well for this.. turn the camo layer to screen in blend mode option and make a copy of that layer and do another in color blend mode if i remember correctly.

If you want a set of camo-skins. There are lots of them already made.
If you don't like the colour just Ctrl + U to change then overall colour.
