You can probably do this easily in POV-Ray, using pigment_map or texture_map. Or
even just with layered pigments. What form are these ship objects in? Are they
meshes, or are they built with more traditional POV-Ray components?

Maybe you should post a small scene to show us what you mean. It can be so easy
to misinterpret a written description. :)
