Thanks Chirone,
The rust isn't really there in my refs, so I don't want to get too far away from those.
I thought I'll post my textures so you guys can tell me what you think:

Most textures I used are 1024X1024. these are simply scaled down.

Any critics and comments are welcome at this point. I've still got a lot to do here, and there's still no deadline in sight so It's never to late for more adjustments.
