I've been trying to create procedural systems for adding detail to objects, and
I think I've got something good now :)

The spaceship is just simple CSG. The clever bit is a very complicated pigment
(creating the panels, the text, and the colours), and a couple of objects
scattered over the surface of the object (aerials and docking ports). The whole
lot is done entirely in pov script, including all textures. Oh, and for some
reason it renders really quick (unlike practically everything else I've ever
rendered!) so I'm thinking of making an animation using a few spaceships built
this way.

This style of detailing is inspired by sci-fi art, particularly the art of Chris
Foss. For those who don't know his work there's a pretty good fan site here:

I still want to add lots more details, but I couldn't resist posting this early
version :)

So, what do you think?
