Ok, so I've been trying to find more 'alien-like' textures for the ship model, I dont really like most of them but I figured I'd see what other people think, and maybe it'll spark some new ideas.
Here's the ship model itself, with no textures applied, I dont think I'm going to change anything major on the model after this:
Now for experimental textures, first I found this for the windows, looks very freaky to me... alien stained glass or something:
Next are three different engine exhaust port textures I found, the one on the far left looks weirdest but the other two look more mechanical:
Now here are 8 different hull textures tested out, most of them look very organic but a couple are more technological-ish:
Im liking the Second and Fitfh from the top for hull textures, if you can give the fifth from the top the same coloration as the second from the top that would be very nice indeed.
Maybe use the 6th from the top for the plates you didn't texture in the prototype views.
Engines, I like the middle one.
The windows are freaky-cool but need more of a 'frame' within the texture itself.
Purple is nomady, so if you want to keep to shades of bronzed/gold for the hull Id suggest gold-ish or greenish energy/window colors.
I should put in for a custom-painted Griffin of my own with an extra gun mount. :P
In all seriousness, I think you have a good shot given you have an expansive RP background for it and aren't in it for just the 'I want a custom pew-pew machine' factor. :laugh:
I would say the best texture is the one applied to all of these later pictures.
Good job, like always.
