I rather dig the retro feel this thing has, simple shape but still a nice silhouette. Nice detailing on the design as well :)

Very nice indeed! Any other views of it ready to publish? I would like to see bow/stern, top and bottom. I assume that this is a side profile of the vessl. Also, have you developed a interior layout for this ship?

Any color profiles of the ship itself? Light grey with white hull numbers with a black outline? Hull numbers and ship names, etc. The vanes at the stern of the ship, what are their function?

Finally, is this a example of a ship in you own universe of your creation or for someone else's universe (i.e. Star Blazers/Space Cruiser Yamato for example)?

I'm going to give you 5 stars each for Vision and Originality. Four stars for Technique and Impact.

Vision: *****
Originality: *****
Technique: ****
Impact: ****

No I generally don't have time or the inclination to draw more than one view , it is indeed the side view and no there is no interior layout finished for it.

I was intending to go with a non combat yellow and blue dazzle, frankly in the RP ZMI vessels in non combat are almost invisible given they wrap themselves in the local legal limit of volumes worth of holographic advertising. In combat the hull will actively go to maximum photon absorption and deep sky mimicking. The distortion from the gravitic drive is at any heavy usage unfortunately quite optics obvious as would be the emergency fusion torch.

The fins are primarily gravity sensors and emergency radiator points for a particle fountain. Its also a fantastic reason to put fins near the correct point for my near rocket shape.

Its an example of a ship of my own devising that operates in the Nationstates fractal setting. I do borrow from Kieth Laumer in the use of hellbores.

I love how the retro styling combines with the high-tech details.
