I believe I used the perlin noise type, but all of them are quite cool and err it's shiny because it's behind glass - the edge of which you can see in the render I should make that a bit thicker actually  It's not a 'secret of the masters' it's just down to fiddling round with the settings a lot   Here's my surface settings. FYI I have the material set to reflect a small black pic, because sometimes my backdrop isn't black, and I get wierd blue reflections of the environment I don't want Hope it makes sense. Oh and the scale is tiny because the model is quite small. |

Downloads: 1 Uploads: 0 | Yeah that's the kind of direction I was going for, and the main engineering in the Enterprise Refit. Little bit of a mix |

Downloads: 1 Uploads: 0 | Hehe not sure what the benefits of that would be? the whole joy of procedurals is they are 3d, scalable, and they don't repeat (well sorta they do, but not exactly). Rendering them out would lose you a lot of those advantages, and making them into a tileable image could be a right pain! The metal texture is just done in Photoshop using the 'threads' plugin.. very cool stuff! |

I love what you're doing with this station. I also really love that particle beam render you posted a few pages back.  |
