If you're doing fancy veneering, good luck!

This article will show you how to turn "Wood_Cherry_Original" into a variety of lighter and darker woods that work for models. http://www.MartinRinehart.com/models/tutorial/tutorial_ww_tip_01.html

Hi Steven and (a late) welcome from me, too.

Have you actually downloaded and installed any plugins?

In the meanwhile, I have added you to the woodworkers usergroup so you should be able to see and post in the woodworking forum down in the index page.

Finally - your image does not show up. Could you rather attach it to your post?
