IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


  It looks like this Kahs Destroyer has stumbled into the wrong nebula.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


  The claw is a blob object with CSGs for nails.  Moray's excellent
  texture editor allowed me to easily play with the textures for
  the skin and hull metal.  The destroyer itself is just an intersting
  collection of polygons and CSGs.  I originally used SPatch to make
  the claw, but it was too smooth and I wanted something 'knottier'
  for the lighting to play with.
