The blue-ish painting underneath the secondary hull makes it look slimmer and sleeker. Great job.
One more suggestion if I may. The join on the aft side of the neck is quite rounded--unique.
It ties into the top section of the secondary hull, which is quite flat.
What you may want to do is to have flat panels atop the secondary hull just aft of the neck-join.
Have semi-circles atop the secondary hull behind the neck that trail off.
This might help tie the rounded neck to the flat secondary hull top. Something to consider perhaps.
Thank you all guys for the comments!
Aeries: Thanks for the tip! This is the first model I use reflective materials on, so I'm still experimenting with different settings each render.
publiusr: I appreciate your sugestion, but I'm not the designer of the ship, I'm just doing the 3D model. However the aft of the secondary hull isn't designed yet, so if you have any sugestion for that area, I'll be glad of tell Bernd about it.
More work done, still a lot to do here:
