dont supopse you could have a go at my suggestiopns re lighting, reflected glare and gloss paint-
Also I really like your sh4 effects - I really, really like the random additional explosions and the fact that you get some ships that you hit and just sink slowly - others go fast others go with a bang while others with a whimper - can you continue to mess with this, I like your smaller explosions and their mini firebasll - really nice work

Here's the section that I made 'writeable' currently. It is highlighted in red:

This has some really cool possibilities  |
