The Future???

This is a shape, a ship, that came to me in a dream...to me it left a huge impression, and I had to flesh her out.
Enjoy mates:

Kagato-class interdiction cruiser. Pride of the Zakdorn Navy.

Notable for the fact that its weapon emplacements cannot be detected by any known sensor device until just before they open fire. Because the Zakdorn have rarely fired their weapons in anger (and never against a target that managed to SURVIVE such an encounter), no one is entirely sure what -- if anything -- these ships are armed with..
 
You're alive! I used to look out for your stuff at Scifi-meshes.

Great work, I love your exotic stuff. Do you have your own website, or all your work on imgur?

Don't know how practical it would be as a ship but there is something Roger Dean about it that I love.
 
Fascinating! This is much more interesting to me as an artist and a fan than 80% of what I typically see.

I think you could go bigger or sharper with the saucer and its edge.

The bottom I think you want to be careful not to make too blade-like. This ship isn't gunmetal gray, is it? With corrugated razor edges??

I think you should strive for more elegant and sculpted if you create more refined versions...more curves under the saucer/dorsal, and more delicate nacelle ring. There's something very scary about being killed by something absurdly beautiful.

If the overall idea is in detail this would be an organic ship (a living structure being more futuristic) I'm curious what the next step is after organic.

The D looks organic in shape. At most, I could imagine it being grown, but it's still lifeless. Say the G is actually organic and looks somewhere between the D and this. What's the future after organic? Say this is the E-L. Is the hull a transparent crystal? Is it an animate living changeling-like structure? Is it all force-fields and energy?
 
Nice. Looks like somebody built a ship inside a collimated warp field waveform or something.
 
The things that come to you in a dream can always be the strangest, and the most inspiring.
The form leaves little doubt that she is grown or sculpted, not constructed.

She doesn't look very agile or suited for combat though.
