Am I seriously the first person to realize how phallic this looks?

No, you're not. Some people just have common decency and are willing to discard a slight resemblance. I think most spacecraft bear a greater resemblance to tampons anyway.

It's probably just me, but those solar panels have an odd perspective on my eyes.

just a little question: how long does it take you to make a picture like this one?

Yesterday decided to practise modeling a bit while watching the Atlas V with Cygnus spacecraft launch attempt on NASA TV, modeled it from scratch in 5-6 hours, then some texturing and rendering, after that some postprocessing and ended up with 3 finished images by Friday morning. I'd say it was 8-10 hours of work I guess.
