Default Serpentine shipset request

Indeed, I am actually looking for a shipset besides the usual Regency I keep on using. So, does anyone know of a shipset featuring a serpent Empire, or at least a race portrait that would represent a serpent? (Or even better, something closer to a Naga, but I shouldn't be dreaming)

I cannot really make an in-depth search in the shipsets sites for now, given how slow my connection is, so I have no choice but to ask on the forum. And obviously, I cannot even consider to think about drawing my own race portrait given how horrible the result would be.

If there is no such shipset, or if it happens to be impossible to find, I guess the Cryslonite will masquerade as serpents. Thanks in advance!

The KanesS is very serpentine- or at least the race portrait is.

what sort of serpent portrait do you want? Can you describe a naga? I might be tempted to draw one for you...

The Sethulkra are slightly serpentine, and very cool

Hmm, I like the look of your shipset, especially the ships themselves.

A Naga has the upper body of a human and the lower body of a serpent; kind of like a mermaid I guess. Dominions has a nice Naga Pretender that I could send to you via email if you want. I had more descriptive pictures, but they went down with my hard drives.

Thanks RD! I will be trying this shipset as soon as my modem decides to download it.

Hmm. Ok, how much of the alien would you want shown? Just the head? Head and shoulders? full body?

A portrait such as the one for your own shipset would work (head and upper body), if you have the time and the inspiration to do such a drawing. Either the KanesS or Sethulkra would be fine for my Empire however, at least much more fitting than the Cryslonite.

OK, any particular colours, themes, acessories..?
Tell me about the race: Benign? Aggressive? Cultured? Barbarians? Lots of techie/cyborg bits or all fangs and claws? The more you tell me the better I can try to draw it.
