octopus chandelier

[hollow cargo]

I would like to reduce the polygon count of this chandelier. (especially the octopus legs)
How can I reduce the polygon count while still keeping the octopus shape?

In short, I want to make the model more low-poly-like.

you can start by making the slightly bending shape into a straight long cube instead

with some rotations you can mimic the look of it being flexible while also still looking low poly
