what should these peoples ships and bases be?

hello, its me again. does anyone have any ideas about ships and bases that could be made for a race with a head like this?



and here is the top veiw, all the better to see the way the eyes connect.



all i have thought of is lots of turrets, matching up with their multiple eyes, maybe ships made in their image... i am running out of ideas.

i will eventually clean them up, i know they look very rough.

actually i got it from d&d- beholders. couldn't think of anything so i found it online and made it. it was actually supposed to be a character in itself, but that isn't possible. adds a nice touch- the legend of beholders on earth, created by these beings visiting. of course now the coalition conveniently also has trade lanes ect.!

Reminds me of Yog Sototh...partly from D & D and partly form ancient lore.

Kept sealed in the underworld by special gates that require human sacrifice along with encantations from the Necronomicon to open.

In Freelancer style;
Their gate is hidden deep within the darkest clouds that are dagerously high in radiation placed near a black hole. The interference and fog is so great that it is nearly impossible to see the gate until you are upon it. All about the clouds is a massive "zone-21" mine field...
but more to keep something in rather than keep curiosity seekers out.
At the entrance to this outer field stands one gate that opens to the portal to the second gate which takes you to their homeworld system.

They are not to be trifled with and would just as well eat your soul as look upon you. Yet, to brave the dangers to get to their home planet lay rewards and power beyond imagination.

Something organic

Like in SpaceForce 2 the Collective Spaceships.

Rankor- of course. they are the dom kavash in my mod and its fitting that they should be near impossible to get to as the creators of all technology around serius, including the nomads. and all their bases are semi-cloaked, revealed only recently by the drain on their power caused by the reactivation of their gates.

the collective- never heard of them, will check it out.

AVAST! HERE BE GEEKY PIRATE HUMOR!
