thanks for all the nice comments
@Erik_S: yeah, the LF-A GT car is purely just my interpretation of what it might look like
@natec: yeah, the CF is set to 2, stickers to 1...basically i see the CF doing what i want while editing the UVW unwrap, but then as soon as i deselect the mesh or try and collapse the ID 2 unwrap, it changes it to be identical to the 1 unwrap
@doom18: thanks for the input, but its more complicated than that...the sticker unwrap is unwrapped in a way that makes painting across the panels easy...the CF one needs to be different, because every surface needs to be stretched out evenly and theres also more polygons with just carbon fibre, plus i want to keep the high-res CF texture rather than try and combine it with the stickers...and no i havent forgot the furai, i was actually playing around with it too, i still havent got the paint right though
