There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

If what one is looking to do is something like this:
then, using PSP, one needs to get familiarized with working with nodes... First, you convert the object to a vector object.
1 On the Tools toolbar, select the Pen tool .
2 On the Tool Options palette, click Edit Mode button .
3 Click a vector object.
The object's nodes appear.
4 Click the node.
The selected node appears with a solid gray fill.
You can also,
Select multiple nodes
Hold down Shift, and click the nodes.
Select all nodes on a contour
Double-click one node. If the object has only one contour, this selects all nodes in the path.
Select all nodes in a path (all nodes in the object)
Right-click a node, and choose Edit Select All.
Select the next or previous node on a contour
Hold down Shift, and press [ or ].
Deselect a selected node
Hold down Shift, and click the node.
Then you can deform the object to your desired shape...
Here is an example of what I am talking about... a WIP on a panel for a Ki 43 III in which I
used this tool extensively to change the original perspective and modify curves into straight lines and vice-versa
IMHO our worst enemy is the "want for immediate publishing" because our works often end up a little less precise than on wishes...

I have wondered why you use only the green/yellow gauge face. Its not that I don't like them. I'm just curious as to why you don't have different types.

This is a definitive version correcting perspective errors and overall inaccuracy of
circulating panels for this WW2 workhorse. Painted on the basis of a line drawing from
the manufacturer...
Available in either a "clean version" or with additional pop-up throttle box and yokes...
