Larger ships will have something on the order of 6-12 point defense turrets of varying types.
Here's another shot with the finalized "Imperium Galactical"-authentic texture:
Might still play around with it a bit. "modern era" ships, ie, endgame tech, will have a look similar to the one above. Tech 1 and 2 will have more of a grunge-look as the previous pics depicted.

Read the last line. While this is the "final" texture, I'll probably still play around with it a bit. I did like the earlier texture quite a lot too, so you can count on seeing something similar on earlier-tech ships. I'll probably add a polished metal overlay on top of what you see above to make it look a little more detailed.

I know but now it looks like how ships looked in startrek before they stripped the paint off of the hulls and started usign designs that looked good and had mroe detail.
The main body with the engines and the things ontop looks a little plastic like now.

Hm.. I'll increase the shininess and contrast a bit, see if that improves it.

I'll PM you agorm.
Thanks to some help I've got the primary guns and radar dish attached. Enhanced the texture a bit, gave it more of a nice polished metal sheen.

Well tough titty, this ship according to the Imperium Galactica canon is lightish-silver. However, many other ships are dark like the texture I showed you earlier, so don't worry, you'll have your dark grungy ships.

Okay, that movie looks great. I also really liked the sheer jet black cruiser, but the lighting in the movie is great, and this ship will be fantastic looking with thrusters and some highlights (lights/accentuating sensors and guns and whatnot)
Nice work Caydr, especially for learning the texturing job as you went.
Edit: Whoops. Misspelled his name <_<
