These are living constructs manufactured by some ancient race, now long dead, that used powerful magics to program and animate these into "lifeforms" they cannot replicate nor reproduce, but they are immortal until destroyed. So if they look real, I put extra care into their modeling so they resemble closely to their organic counterparts.

This is two views of the construct Crustacea Lobster Carrier-Salvage Processor Mothership, that is 15.000 ft long, houses all other Crustacea along it's hull, with the bulk of interior space dedicated to processing salvage materials. The front view shows the flight bay entrance under it's nose.

All modeled using Wings 3D, a subdivisional surface modeller and Vue Creator to light, texure and render the scenes.
