   Thanks for your feedback everybody! I've been working on the material, and re-did most of it (about 30 layers worth), in hopes of improving it. Things I've improved: -made the paint more 'flaky' looking -Added grunge and grime -Hand painted the location of rust to improve believably -Made rust look more realistic and not…

   I think you need a little more defined diffused texture. right now the rush is too even across the piece

   nice work and i think you should convert your diffuse map into normal map using crazy bump etc. and overlay on your original normal map.

   Slight update, I converted the blades at the front and back into an alpha mapped cylinder, bringing down the polycount from 5500 to 4300. Looks about the same as it was to me. Just to clarify, the diffuse texture is just a placeholder until I get all the little annoyances from the bake worked out.

   Thanks for the suggestions. I've been working on the diffuse, trying to get it to match the reference. The seam has also been taken care of. I thought about adding wires to the front, but the polygon count is quite high already as is. I'm at 4300 faces at the moment. The front 'cap' turned out kind of skewed (in both the…

   Well I must say the colors make it look very "pretty" to the eye. The specular has a nice color to is as well. But it still feels like one giant photo to me. Using photos can creates some issues if you aren't looking out for them. First being resolution. It might be your overall texture resolution but atm your textures are…
