Hi all :)

Last night I was making a repaint of one of my favorite aircraft - the Lancair Legacy by RealAir - when I discovered some parts of the plane that I just could not seem to find in the textures. I've circled them on the following screenshot:

The painted texture files are as follows (mesh overlay included for easy viewing):

RASLegacy_Ext_T1.psd
RASLegacy_Ext_T2.psd


Repaint is still WIP, so don't mention the misaligned wingtip markings ;)


I hope someone has the solution, as this is beginning to annoy me a lot :D


Cheers,

EDIT: Also, do you know how to paint the propeller? I'm going for a semi-real adaptation of this paintjob.

I'm not sure about the paint kit, but I can say that most of the time items 2, 3 and 4 wouldn't be painted...They are  antennas for the radios and gps etc...Paint could cause interference.

So it seems. First five or six pages on airliners.net revealed that most, if not all Legacy aircraft have white antennae regardless of body paint, e.g. as seen here. Thanks for the heads-up :)
