heres a pic, 1k with Gloabal illumination. I didn't like the GI on the mother ship tho. Does anyone else think that it kinda messes up displacement mapping? Seems like a waste because i have such a nice bump map on the mother ship. (there is no map on this image however)

Sorry about the blur, had it on from the motion renders.

And by the way everyone, pony said earlier he thought that i wasn't getting much C&C because he figured i probably know how i want this whole thing to look. But it's the opposite. I have NO idea what i'm doing, i've never done anything like this, and i'm making it all up as i go along. So any ideas i'm sure will help.
