add a texture to solidworks?

[daggius]

hi

 

i'm making a model of a fighter jet

 

the built in textures are all fine if i wanna make something look metallic and what not

 

but i want to make the plane look like it is painted in camoflage something like this

 

freespace.virgin.net/john.dell/spitfireVJohnD2004.jpg

 

is there a way to insert your own textures to solidworks so u can make the model look like that?

 

thanks

 

(i am using solidworks 07)

When you are adding a material you can open up a preloaded material for its settings and apply a different map to it. Under the appearance hit the browse.
