killas guide to easy skinning

Well, yea. That's all there is to it. As people irritatingly say, practice makes perfect and the more you do it the easier it gets and the faster it gets. I also think it's another excuse for keeping poly counts low, because the more polys you have, the longer this takes.

Unwrap UVW can really make a skin file fit almost any model. Here's some of my examples. This Abrams tank was also skinned using the crusader tank's skin.

This T72 was skinned with the Battlemaster's skin.

And it isn't just for tanks! These fighters are using the Raptor's skin.

and this Mig 29 Fulcrum is using the default China mig skin.

So good luck, and once you've done this, move onto one of the setup tutorials to get your unit into the game!!

End :)
