  Yet another starship

I like starships, even if they are second only to glass spheres on 
chessboards in the cliche-stakes. So here is a megapov starship.
It started life several years ago as a super-ellipsoid experiment
gone wrong, and is now mainly blobs and sphere_sweeps. The surface
pigment is, of course, the mighty crackle, with the crackle normal
problem retained because I like the angular look it provides. 

The elliptical green aperture and the blue arcs are supposed to be 
ports for weapons, because if there's one thing you can be sure of 
in space, it's the need for an unreasonable amount of firepower!

The background is just several layers of bozo pigment, and was based 
on Chris Colefax's excellent nebula include file.
