You'll need a Model Attribute Editor to create glow models for your ship. Precise bit mapping on your model will illuminate best when using a glow model editor; however, you can also apply the glows to the general bitmap, but sometimes the glow doesn't correspond properly to the bitmap art doing it this way. I have a Model Attribute Editor for SFC:III but not sure it will work with SFC: Orion Pirates. We are planning to upload our modeling tools soon to ModDB and I can provide you the link at that time. You might try doing a search on the web for Starfleet Command modeling tools and see what it yields. I know at one point, Mod DB and Nexus mods had some modeling tools for the SFC community.
