Is your room not freaky enough? Need to add a little "Old World Charm"? How about "Old Ones" Charm? Well get ALL up and crazy wid it, with the Tendrils. These writhing tentacles of other worldly energy will warp your room straight into the Twilight Zone in a nanosecond!

Put them on the floor, in the walls, on a window, or in any hole you can find. They looks super wicked and evil by themselves, but with free cloning, you can fill a ROOM with them! Turn even the blandest chat room into something that would make H.G. Lovecraft feel at home! If you like Sci-Fi, Evil, or Deranged, this will be the best 550 credits you ever spent!

Glowing Blue too bland for you? Need something Red? Want them to be blood metal instead? DERIVE THEM! The Tendrils are especially easy to derive, having only two texture maps and some very simple animation settings. Turn these glowing whips into anything you want, price them a bit higher then mine, sell them, and keep the extra credits for yourself. Ain't Deriving COOL!?

This is the Color Map for the Tendrils. As you can see, it's just a simple looping image, with the same thing on the front as the back. This allows the texture to scroll smoothly. You can turn off Scrolling in the Animation settings under Material, if you don't want the Tendrils to appear to flow. You can also turn off the glowing effect by unchecking "Use Blending". Solid or flowing energy, it's your choice!:

This is the Opacity Map for the Tendrils. Make sure this matches the same size and shape as the Color Map. The best way to do this is to copy your Color Map and remove all color, the adjust the contrast and brightness. Everything that's visible should be gray or white. Everything that's invisible should be black. You don't need to use a PNG, I just used one for this example:
