Not so much a race as a whole mod... "1950s visions of the future" - Dan Dare etc... Kind of like the "grit tech" but 30 years previous - valves and rockets rather than semiconductors and radioactives...

The Day The Earth Stood Still
Forbidden Planet (The movie that spawned Star Trek (yes, I need professional help with my trek addiction. )

Actually, I was wondering if there were any meshes or ship images out there based upon Tim Burtons movie Mar's Attacks.

I thought the movie was funnier than ****, and would love to have the LGM and their ships for a race.

WOuld be neat seeing Buck Rogers vs Flash Gordon.

Galaxy Quest
Alien

H.R. Giger's style would be perfect for an organic race's shipset.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"

Giger - hooo, scary.

Check out the Crauw and the Sharlon on Universal Shipyards - they're not far off.
