Found an old model on my hdd that I've never finished.
This is what I have so far:

Was quite an odyssey to get to this point. Don't know why but the old file was
really buggy, but know its done and I can start to texture this piece.
Where I can need some help, I am unsure how to paint this.
The real satellite from my reference is fully covered in grey foil, what looks kinda boring. Some other satellites are again, covered in golden foil
or are galvanized golden. To prevent heat radiation and solar wind, I think.
And of course they use aluminium everywhere to save weight.
Here is my first crappy overpaint (I am not happy with this at all):

Please tell me what you think.
Thanks.
