I don't see why it would be difficult to make a shipset out of it (aside from the initial concept and construction, obviously).

By varying the number/length of the stalks and bubble clusters, it could be easy to tell the size/function of a ship within the shipset.

Good job.

How is this off-topic?
Hmmm, good point

As for function, thus far we have:

- Organic Missile/Bomb
- Organic Colony Ship
- Plague Bomb (2)
- Organic Stellar Manip. Component
- Organic Cattleprod (don't think it'll end up being this )
- Organic Propulsion

Right now I'm not sure what it'll end up being, but most likely it will serve as some sort of component, not the basis for a shipset. Though it's likely I'll eventually get around to making a similarly designed shipset too, when I feel like making another shipset.

Thank you everyone who's voted and commented so far, I'm happy you guys like it

Give it a couple of years, and my kid could probably do better. J/K. I like it very much, and I wish I had the time, the know-how and the programs to create something like that. Good job.

It doesn't require much know-how, just a little bit. The programs, that can be difficult, depending on where you get them from.

The biggest thing it requires is time. Lots and LOTS of time. For example, the pic in this thread probably took roughly an hour and a half to get right

I'm happy you like it, it's always nice to have people like what I do
