Do you have good metal textures? Like spaceship hulls? I really need ones for my models since I was thinking of re-doing some of them.

Also I need something blue crystalline looking texture for my future models. I'm not too good at creating metal looking textures. Or can you point me to a good texture site? Any help appreciated, thank you!

I found that it's pretty easy to create brushed metal textures in GIMP by taking a basic gray, overlaying some noise, and doing a motion blur followed by a gaussian blur http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Bryce is wonderful for this sort of thing, since it provides a whole library of "materials" (3d textures) to use. With enough tweaking those can gennerally be adapted. (render a view of the material and use that as your texture)

Unfortunately that tweaking also means I can't just send you a texture. You might try a demo, if you can find it.
