It's a big dome 300m underneath C block, which you get to by portals (linked turrets). There's a toggle switch to change the picture on the sphere. I was wondering what sort of thing I could do in a video game that would be cool, but easy, and this was it.

It's nice but the texture is very very flat. There's a couple things you can do:
  • Find a generic metal texture, and multiply it on top of the texture, may have to lower the opacity to make it look realistic.
  • Paint in panels, rivets, etc, find a gimpbrush or whatever you're using for grime and put some of that in. See how the ref pic has all that?
  • Darken or lighten certain parts. Just imagine if it was being lit, where would the highlights/shadows go?
  • Try to maybe copy/paste in one of the shipped cockpit glasses. Even look at the shipped assets as a guide at what to do.
Hope that helps! It's a great model.

Omg, that looks epic! But you know what'll make it even more epic? If you had like blue flames on the front.
