what should it look like?

Post by spy46 » 14 Mar 2013, 11:08

ok so im working on making a Imperial star destroyer, actually i have about 80% lets say of it done, i just cant for the life of me find a good reference for a texture.

ive looked but too many of the pics i see from movies and games etc are too blured for me to make any thing out.

so im stuck with what it should look like.

you can see it here along with some other things ive worked on http://leer3dmodeling.blogspot.ca/

i have a plan for that ship but i would really like it to be textured (not the best at texturing)

Have you ever seen this site? You can download all the models from Star Wars. Already done and with textures. Maybe it can help.

if there not blurry there too far away.

im trying to get a feel of what a close up of the SD would some what look like (not too close) because i dont want to have some thing that just looks like 1 shade of gray do i ?

AURG!!!

i just want to make a texture that looks some what good but i dont want to be lazy about it, should i make it just 1 shade of gray or should i make it look some what like the ships from Star Trek that have a main shade but several others dotted all over the place.
