Hi, im new to this website and I am trying to learn how to skin my own vehicles..What better vehicle skin than a camo warthog with a shoop da whoop picture pasted all over it....I need to know if this is a good or a bad idea for a nooby like me? I made a video and posted it on youtube if anybody wants to see it.Below is the link.

and attempt but this is a pet peave of mine. please don't have whitespace on the picture. or black or any other solid color. make the "ShoopDaWhoop" picture be jsut the face and not the blank canvas around it.

ok here is a tip. i am guessing you are using Paint? save the shoopdawhoop image as a transparent gif so that there is no white canvas. then copy it onto the hog skin you have.

if you took the hog and the skin, then maybe extracted the whole hog and skin itself out the map it would prolly be a awesome mod then.

Now for some collective criticism.
Next time, for decals, don't just put in square shaped ones with backgrounds, select only the face or the mouth etc. and put them on.

we don't need to reiterate the same thing over and over again, it is redundant.
