BUMPS

[Shackman]

I'm fairly new to repainting - can't believe I'm hooked.

As I imporve, I understand more about what each file in an average texture does and how to amend, for example, window layouts to match real aircraft.

BUT HOW TO MAKE BUMPS, the blue files which show raised texture for windowlines, or rivets or panel lines.
