Braided lines

Hey all, i’m modeling Acadamy’s ok-but-soft electraglide (or “big twin classic” if you like!) and i’m stuck trying to replicate the braided lines that i want to put on it. Anyone got any experience with this? Is painting the only way, and if so…how?!

i appreciate any input, thanx

Hi Rob!
I think you should take a look at this excellent tutorial made by Niclas Proos. I think he posted it on this forum as well but now I just seem to find it on AF. I think it will do the trick.

Great post there Joel,
I was looking for something along those lines myself.

Cheers, Pete.[:D]
