1/72 VF-11 Full Armor paint scheme, could use line art and advice

[Dax415]

Hi guys, been searching around the web and I can't seem to find a blank template of the armored vf-11.  Attached is what I've found thus far.  I'm thinking a stealthy color plus a light blue for accent... probably keep things aligned with a flat satin style of paint.  Which easy to access/use program would be best for recoloring the file to get a mock up paint scheme? Your help and input appreciated.

There's just not much in the way of innovative squadron schemes for the ARMORED  VF-11. I don't have the VFMF VF-11 book yet, but maybe there's something in there..

I have a squadron of three 1/72 resin kits waiting to be built. And though i do like this scheme, i will definitely go for something more unique. Once i go there..

I recommend Photoshop (albeit, it may or may not be easy for you to *get*).

Nevertheless, any program that has layers and lets you adjust the blend mode of the layers to multiply.  You can put additional layers underneath the line art, lay down the colour there, and you'll get your mock up.

I second the recommendation...

This only took a couple of minutes using Photoshop CS4.

There's always GIMP, which is freeware. It does have layers.

Ok took awhile, but decided to go ahead post what I had in mind minus a few custom insignious I had in mind.
