Opaque Glass/Windshield Texture

karpar

I'm working on an attack helicopter model, and while I could avoid this whole issue by modeling the interior of the cockpit, I was wondering if anyone could offer some pointers on painting textures that would allow me to leave the cockpit glass completely opaque while still looking like convincing glass. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, you could either give it a really hard reflection, so that's all the person see's. You could also tint the windows...

I would just model the seats if I were you, that way you can leave the windows the way they should be and still have something to look at inside.

There was a similar thread about glass just a few days ago.

kodde: I should have mentioned that I saw that thread. I was really hoping to come up with a way to entirely avoid making the glass transparent.

perna,DarthNater: Thanks for the suggestions. I'll give them a shot.
