I will, but it's not very likely I make the interior.
What's ertl/amt?  I thought I knew most of the SW-shorts.

Well, of course I am, but I don't know what it is.  It's about as big as my
previous model was, but I don't know that scale.  But It shouldn't be too

I think I have about everything I need to finish it.  Maybe a more detailed

If you're using MegaPov (which I believe you are) I recommend you use
image_pattern.  I think it's more flexible.

Oh, in that case material_maps might be more useful.

I wish you luck.

What's your next project?  I believe you once mentioned the DeathStar?
