Using Silo, I am slowly building a space cargo ship, still in a very 
early WIP stage. Two views here, back and front, above a simple planet.

The greebles are generated by Zeger Knaepen's "metal hull panels" 
textures from 2009. I never was able to use his parametric greebles 
macros unfortunately; too complex and often with miscellaneous bugs I am 
unable to trace to their origin. However, this works perfectly for my 
purpose.

Thanks jr. Yes, the stern, and especially the thrust nozzles, are 
satisfying. Surprisingly simple too: I wanted to use media, but in the 
end I got this white-hot effect by using a high emission value on the 
bottom end of the nozzles. This nicely corresponds to some SF 
illustrations I had looked at earlier to get inspiration ;-)

Back to the workshop now. Much yet to do.
Thomas

Next WIP version of the fore view, with cosmonaut for scale (I don't 
remember where I found this one...)

I like the design of the cargo.
If you need to move a very heavy container, you can also use up to six 
ships combined powers... ;-)

Nice greebling! But how did you do the colour bleeding? RGB values above 
1? The bird's head-shaped cockpit looks somewhat weird, given the fact 
that such craft operate well outside any atmosphere. And... a COSMOnaut? 
Are you sure?

See you in Khyberspace!

Thanks Yadgar, and comments very to the point indeed:
- the color bleeding is done by emission color:
material {
   texture {
     pigment {rgb <0.50, 1.00, 1.00>}
     finish {
       specular 0 roughness 0.001
       emission rgb <0.50, 1.00, 1.00>*5
       diffuse  1
       reflection {0} conserve_energy
     }
   }
}

- cockpit: Agreed. This is weird and I have no good reason to keep it thus.

- the cosmonaut is their for scale. He will disappear eventually ;-)

Maybe that beak contain some sensors or other equipment that need to be 
located up front...

Thanks Paolo. Yes, you are correct. I had not thought as far as that yet :-)

Yeah... well, I was not really happy with it in the first place, so I 
chopped it off.

I forgot to mention that the colour bleeding texture is applied to the 
end part of the nozzle only. the sides have less extreme textures.
