Okay, I have made my model spaceship in Wings3D and exported to 3ds. Then I have imported and textured in Bryce, and the rendered image is just right. The problem is I need an image of just the object, i.e. on a transparent background (or black). But I need the sky set to something other than black to get the right reflective colouring on my model.

So then I try exporting the rendered image and using Paint shop pro to select the image and not the background. This almost works, but because the colours on the spaceship are so close to the background around the edges I can't seem to get just the model selected.

I am sure there must be some simple way to do this, but I am really struggling with it. Any help would be really appreciated.

Many thanks,
Tim
