    Normally the new bits on a ship will be in a different color to make it more obvious what has been added. In this case the hull plates are yellow to make them stand out more.

      right i was thinking about an au series that i wont get intoit cos its mostly explained in the history, the idea somewhere in the fanfic section. anyway in the fic some of the major characters have there own upgraded ship to some extent. So i thought i would make a spec sheet for the ideas i had.

      sam/ vala cargo ship
      Spoiler:

      name:Adria
      type:Upgraded cargo ship

      powerplant:
      goa'uld powersource
      mk2 naquadah generator(boosts origional power by 55%)

      engines:
      goa'uld drive
      goa'ild hyperdrive (45% boost)

      defences:
      Cloak
      Goa'uld shield (25% boost)

      weapons:
      2 death glider cannons mounted underneath,can spin 360(2x normal cannon power)

      history:

      just before the Tau'ri began evacuating to pegasus Colonel Carter and Vala Maldoran began a project they found a banged up cargo ship and decided to fix it up with there free time. Althought it wasn't long before the ship was finished, so they decided that they would now begin making a series of small ugrades.




      McKay/Shepard Cruiser
      Spoiler:

      Name:Not got a clue
      Type:Upgraded Wraith Cruiser

      Powerplant:
      Standard Wraith Generator
      3x mk1 naquadah generator(1 to boost a sertain system)

      Engines:
      Standard Wraith engines
      Wraith Hyperdrive(4x origional speed)

      Defences:
      Hull Regeneration(20% boost)

      Weapons:
      Wraith Pulse weapons(75% boost)

      history:

      when the evacuation to pegasus began Atlantis would need a much greater defence, Colonel Shepard saw a lot of potential in the abandoned wraith cruiser on Lantea. After a huge debate McKay, Shepard and a shience team were sent to try and salvage it. Some systems were completely cut off and had to be connected to our own generators whic actally gave the ship a boost. And the power that would be going to those systems was trasferred to other shstems like weapons and hull regenration. After almost 3 weeks of work she was operational and working better than ever before.

        I always put the panels yellow so I can see the detail. I usually add the normal textures after I finish with them.

                  I cannot imagine how difficult it is to model an entire city, just a cityship is driving me mad! lol. Good luck with this project.

                  And here's some more turret models. They aren't mine, there Fongsaunder's, i just rendered them.

                    Just so I'm clear on this: Rendering means puting on the textures right?

                      Rendering is when your 3d software outputs an image.

                      Putting textures on is just texture mapping.

                        These don't actually have any textures on, there just various shades of grey.

                                You have to make a texture map.

                                then apply it to the models surface.
