How to achieve the look...hmmm. Not sure if this is a help, but i work with an atmosphere that has a lot of haze, blueish metal/concrete textures and many smaller blue/red lightsources. Also i try not to use too many different colors. Incarnadine, Polymodeling with symetry, and some beveling/extruding primitives. I actually find polys easier to model with then box modeling. But for some strange reason the gap where i connect the points gets screwed up when trying to use the Extrude Inner tool. It doesnt preserve the groups even though it should. Really strange. Thats why it lacks a proper windscreen. :)
