G thanks dude, I just got your email this morning, and will get back to you a little later on - glad you like this so far. texturing will be simple on the main panels etc. But Im working on some semi - transparent GUIs for the rest of it with the usual colored dials. Ben I'll have a look for you sure np. Ive attached a shot of the outside of the ship for you that was used recently for promo purposes so it has copyrighted blurb on it. enjoy Jay
