a ship this size won't have much of a pattern really, its just to small.  What it will have a lot of is panelling...

panelling would look good.  Only problem I see with the ship is, you have so much awesome detail in the model, but it gets washed away with the skinning put on.  Not being a moder myself not sure how to bring out that detail, whether it is having more detailed skins that wrap more of the small detail, or just more shading in the skin.

The ship looks awesome tho (even over  my NON-TOS prejudice)

well it needs more than just a base texture.  Essentially each edge is going to have to accentuated using panel work.  Once thats done (and all the other small details) they should go together rather nicely.

Wow, looks really <gasps> Ye GODS! Wonderful work, a worthy addition to the game. Truly a good importing and somebody deserves a few pints and some pizza.

Excellent beyond words. Can't wait to download and fly around.

My preference is for the dark version, but they both look sharp. Nicely done.

Nicely done... this is looking really sharp.  :D

(btw: like seeing people in windows.. looking at a ship that closely means that a person should see some detail through the windows and through a front window, you should at least see the pilot if you have clearer glass (in my opinion)).  And it's nice to see them here..

to be honest... i wasn't too happy with the weathering.......so we will consider that a test run.....yeah thats it!

So im going back to the detailing.. so Thrusters..more chevrons and warning strips...Some greebles... some detail for that hatch thing at the top, the remaing window, the main hatches, some extra panels here and there.... anything else? before i start on the weathering?

The weathering is on a bit heavy.. but think of the initial "makeup" as being a cheap prom date, and refine from there.  ;)

I like all three hull colours but I prefer the yellow slit eyes to all the others you've shown us so far.

I also prefer the model without the mouth and eyes. Perhaps you could release it with an alternate texture with those decals?
