I "never" use photo's because most panels on the aircraft are curved due to which the actual stencil, badge or marking you photograph won't end up having the actual shape due to these curves. Even worse if the picture hasn't been taken in a perfect angle. I only use the photo's as reference or, if all other resources fail perhaps as a source, but so far I did not need that.MACC wrote:Does anyone here do what i do by, copying a photo, then making the colours all the same etc, like on a photo you might have 20 black but then you make them all the same black?
Some stencils and markings I have even created in Excel....
