I assume that you talking about the interior of my spaceship. Well, I just
used MLCad and L3PAO to render on Pov-Ray. For the most part, I just
inserted the 'pov-ray light source'when needed.
For this picture:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=130577
I made an sub-model that was simply a 2X2 space radar dish with two light
sources in it, creating the effect(I hope) of a working light.
As for camera angles, I moved my curser around in MLCad and found the
coordinates of where I wanted the camera to be.(The 2 coordinates appear at
the bottom of the screen) I then selected in l3PAO the 'camera coordinates'
option, and inserted the coordinates in the box directly below the said
switch. I went back to MLCad and found the coordinates of were I wanted the
camera to look at. Then, near the bottom of the L3PAO screen I checked the
'camera look-at" box and inserted the coordinates of were I wanted to look
at. Then I simply rendered.
For the galaxy-background like picture, I used Chris Colefax's galaxy
include files:

Hope this helps.
