LOL Thank you!
FYI:
(Interview with Mojo, a Visual Effects Supervisor and artist who has worked on projects such as Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek: Voyager, and Babylon 5)
Given that Babylon 5 was a completely new series, where was the inspiration taken from for the various ship models?
Ron Thornton and Steve Burg did most of the design work and they both have excellent asthetics. A lot of designs were inspired by nature, such as spiders (the Shadow ship), angelfish (the Minbari cruiser) and a bulb of garlic (the Vorlon ship)! Especially for an organic design, I think it works best to start with a basis that people will find subconsciously familiar. Besides, trying to design totally from scratch is a pain in the ass.
