Well, this has turned into a MASSIVE undertaking now.
After darkening the rivets again and again I realized it just was not producing the results I wanted. Either the rivets just looked too light so that detail was easily lost having turned off the rib/spar shading and highlighting, or looked too dark so fake.
It then struck me what the problem was.....Roughly 3/4 of the rivets were missing from all of the templates out there, that why the areas looked so light and required the excessive shading.
Unfortunately I use a very old version of Photoshop (basically B.E.1.1/Photoshop home 4.0) and am not comfortable using 7.0.....So it is a single pixel at a time add......This is going to delay things by a few days at least.
