I have ran into a bit of a block wall.

While attempting to place windows on ships some time back I kept running into a tiny problem ..... 

It seems we have no problem with any that are running horizontally or vertically.  However, anything that has any sort of circular motion to it is another issue.  I have already tried using the polar coordinates tool, and making larger circles then removing excess and leaving behind only what would be the desired size or shape.  (I have Photoshop 5.5).

Soooo   this week we ran into a compound problem :

1.  getting over a cold that has been a real drag
2.  failure to understand enough about the process in order to complete this project.

The good news is :  Once we get this down pat we should be able to move forward with texturing.

Help would be appreciated.  Pictorial illustrations would be preferred.

thanks

I do have a tutorial of Pataflafla's on PaintShop Pro of how to do what you're requesting.. but not Photoshop.  :p

right now I'll take anything I can get ...

Everything I'm doing on "circular" or curved patterns for windows is comming out severely distorted.  Needless to say this is a bit frustrating.  I'm sure once I see it ..  it will be an easy fix.  It's just one of those areas where I lack knowledge to implement the process, and the wisdom to apply that which I simply do not have.

Help here would be deeply appreciated.
