Lose the obvious geometric shapes and make it look more organic. Also, those spines need to be a little less wispy and more rugged looking.

Alternatively, just use the model for another purpose, that would make a great Cruiser Class Raider for Pirates
PS: Draf, texturing on it would make alot of those obvious shapes muuuuch less obvious. And trying to get rid of them would only raise the overall poly count making it not ideal for a game.

Update:
- Added more details to the pincers to make them less "basic" in shape using bulges and ridges
- Added more hull detailing
- Made the spikes and spines thicker
- Made the "wings" thicker
Overall effect is a higher poly count, which is unavoidable unfortunately.

The ship itself is really cool! And well done! But there's one thing u have forgotten. Thats not a Kluth ship. It has engines and stuff. Kluth faction is all organic and thats not! Though very cool design.

Well, Mr Black doesn't dislike the model seemly... there's a chance. It'd be nice.

Well it seems to fit "terror weapon", I don't think I'd want something like that decloaking near me. But it doesn't really look like the rest of the Kluth ships, maybe if you made the connection between the main body and the "arms" a bit thicker and less wide.
Of course, like Jbud mentioned it would make a nice Pirate Cruiser since it does kinda resemble the Corvette/Frigate designs. Might need to lose the pincers on the arms if you decide to go for a Pirate ship though.

Mk, normals are awful, so you will need to go in and change that. Bad normals are caused by a series of lines being too close to each other, so you need to spread them out, it will also give the ship a better curve.
Im not a fan of the engine wings, they seem out of place to me. The central part of the ship is okay, has some interesting shapes going on, but the nose needs changing, some more kluthy.
My suggestion for the design overall would be to take a look at each of the kluth ships, and then pick out the parts of each you like. Combine them together, sketch it out, and model the result.
Edit: Also, make sure you keep your first post up to date with your latest pictures, it makes it easier then having to sift through to find them.
Edit2: You also wasted a HUGE amount of polys on the arms and small details. You go from general to specific, so start at low poly, work your way up, cut in the details when you need them, where you need them
Edit 3: Start with small ships, not big ships.
