This is what it will look like when it's finished. The terrain was drawn in grayscale in Photoshop. I drew three different tiles and duplicated them about 20 times, so as to get a decent sized city ;-). As for the ships, I had problems applying a decent texture on metaballs. The result wasn't what I wanted, so I went for a clean look (I'll add some weathering in postwork, I think). Josselin
