Default Ship damage

Guys, I need some advice.
I am making another addon for Celestia, the system L-374, w/Doomsday Machine, and the USS Constellation.
I am not sure how to hadle the next step. I made my damage but can't figure out the best way to not let you see inside the saucer.
I would be thankful for any advice.
Thanks,
Tim

Why not? you did damage the outer hull, so you CAN see inside the hull.

OR what is it exactly you mean with "not see inside the saucer" ?

I think he means that it looks all nice and clean inside the saucer, when it shouldn't. I'd go with what Taranis suggested.

Well here is what I came up with.
It's not the best, but I use Anim8or and wings3d for now.
I made 2 flat circles as floors.
Thanks,
Tim

It certainly looks better than any of my attempts at creating damage textures.
