Hey,
My name is Michael and I have worked really hard at modelling this ship, the USS Enterprise NCC-1701. It took me hours and I did my best at adding what small details I could, (not very well due to the reason this is the first time I have modeled). Once I completed it, I ran into a major roadblock: texturing. I need help, I have watched countless tutorials on texturing, but I can't seem to get the look I would like. Ideally I would like the hull texture (along with the others) to look like the first image below.
Can you supply any help, tips, textures, references?
Ideal look:

The model so far:
