Steven Poirier · Jul 26, 2012

Hi,
i made my first attempt to do an helmet but now its not looking very well. Why its too shiny ?

Yep you're in the correct section hence the helmet request thread

I don't see a problem with the pics you posted though as the flat image is just that, flat. When you put your custom helmet in game it then uses the ingame 3D model and has global lighting added etc. To give yourself an idea of how it will look in game you need to have a 3D helmet model and open that in Photoshop then add your flat image to that. Add lights etc and away you go.
