carbon fiber hood?

ok, Ive succesfully color changed, lit the headlights up, added mesh in the bumper, tinted the windows, lower it, put wheels in motion, and now am trying to get the CF hood and I follow this tutorial, I get a new canvas, make it the pixel size they say and make it invisible like they say, well then I zoom in 1600% and make the 2 gradient rectangles and then select-all and edit-defiune pattern. all works, but then when I go and create a new fill layer on my project and dill with the carbon fiber pattern I just made there is only the 2 rectangles I made in the upper left corner, its not repetative across the entire layer.

how do you get it to do this?

this is what I wanna do the cf hood on, what do you think so far. I know I need to spend much more time on all edges but I wanna learn all the tools/things you can do before I spend alot of time on one chop.

i find it easiest to make 3 layers when making the CF
one CF
one desaurated copy of the hood
and one almost invisible blue ish layed of the hood

my carbon fiber tut. :icon16:

I was at photoshopchop.com and read theirs and its basically the same as junkies, but they dont have you zoom 1600%. havent tried it yet, and Ill go read yours. and the underbodies/graphics were just trials, I had a 2nd layer with less opaque blue for a faint glow around the car wider but didnt look right. plus shadows in the neons arent right at the rear wheel I dont think, unless I had one neone in the bumper itself.
