Sabine's masterpiece (Rebels Tie Fighter) WIP

Simon_____

i have been working on this tie fighter project for a uni project, still have a huge amount to do to this so pelase bare that in mind, feed back and crits would be helpful 

Reference - i am transferring this paint job to a realistic version of the ship  

progress so far, focusing on getting all the decals and paint work added before going through and dirtying it up 

Simon_____

started to block in the body decals, i will go in and make them represent handpainted decals and dirty them up a bit

revised roughness across the metal sections

some more progress made on adding some dirt

The model is looking nice!
I feel like the paint could need some more work in terms of material definition.
Right now it feels more like a flat color.
I guess making more use of the different roughness between paint and the metal could be a good starting point.
Also, you could maybe play with different heights of the paint layers through your normal map to make it a bit more interesting.
Maybe this helps as a reference for the material:

thank you for the feedback, i'll try and sort the material definition out first then try and get some variation on the paint
