Blank areas on mesh due to append or link?

I’ve been working on this figure for a long time and have run into this problem:

The grey areas remain grey when trying to paint via texture paint or uv. Some of these areas were appended and fused to original model. This however is not happening to all the appended areas, most of which work well. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hi,

Check you’ve not got a different material assigned to those faces.

Are the materials you’re reffering to listed as 'mat’s?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

In some places, yes.

Thanks mate. That sorted it out. Very much obliged!
