Texture Tutorial Request!

[MBlack475]

Hello to all those who read this! I need a tutorial on how to create a metal texture that meets a couple of requirements. First it shouldn't be brushed metal. Second it needs to be a texture for me to be able to use in 3D UV mapping. Third I need it to look like metal used for armor. Feel free to post the tutorial in the forum if you want. Thanks in advance.

A single color or a gradient will do. What you need to work on is the way light will reflect off the metal, and to actually apply a texture to the metal (some type of displacement or normal map).
