Hello,

For BGA packages result shape of PCB along with 3D as shown in image below.

The Green Color representing the FR4 substrate material needs to be removed from some BGAs. 



Below sample FPX.

You can change color assignments in the Calculator 3D Model Color panel. 

Change the Green Substrate to Black. 

You have complete control of every color assignment for every component family.

Do Not Select 'Black'. 

Select the same color as the Primary Body 'Base Black'. 

Black and Base Black are 2 different colors.
