A question re porting sh3 ships to SH4

I note with interest a number of sh3 ships finding their way into SH4. I know people are working on a global mod to add the Atlantic theatre as an option so you can be US or German commander, this is all good.

My Question, will SH3 skins have the same detail, texture and lighting qualities / affects when transposed to SH4 as native SH4 ships?

If you look at a sh4 ship models the detail is far superior to SH3, the way SH4 ships are modeled in the environment, i.e. they actually reflect sunlight, wood looks like wood, metal looks like metal etc, the way the ship is lit and shaded is far superior to sh3.

Will SH3 originated ships, or completely new modeled ships have the same level of detail and react to the environment and lighting as native sh4 ships, or will we wind up with two sets of ships in SH4. One set being the fine new models of SH4 and the other the more primitive versions from SH3?
