Super Shiny P-40

Hey guys,
After messing around with fresnel files for the P-51, I wanted to see if I could make the P-40 shiny. I couldn't get quite the same shine as 'Stang Evil but it certianly has a shine now.
I modeled it after this Planes of Fame museum P-40.

Here is my result.

I copied over the env file from Squeaky Clean...and here we have it :D
I need to redo the metal work because I had made it really dark to compensate before.

I like shiny! Did you use both the env map and the fresnel5.dds?

This P-40 only had 4 fresnel fiies, I tried them all. In this case it was Fresnel3 that did the trick. After I finish it and upload, you can just copy the fresnel3 and env files to whichever P-40 you want shiny and that should do the trick. :icon29:

I usually like them dirty and rugged, but this one looks pretty good for a change! Looking forward to it!
