The round design is also a staple of Corellian design for any period just before and well after the Clone Wars. The YT-1300 is only one generation of a saucer-addition approach, which may or may not have been George Lucas' taking inspiration from Star Trek's original Enterprise.

Actually the falcon was allegedly inspired by a burger with an olive stabbed into into it by a toothpick

That is a remarkably well planned out ship.

Thanks, I am doing a incredible cross-sections for it(just like Del Rey books for Star Wars) which is a WIP for over a week & bound to be completed in a few day's time. By the way for its finished outer look check out the [link]

Yeah, I'd seen the exterior shot. I was kinda hoping you'd go with a cockpit window style reminiscent of the Falcon.

Actually I was deliberatelty trying to drift away from anything that would remind the viewer of Falcon. The point was designing a completely unique freighter with Star Wars feel to it. (That is why I used Ebon Hawk from KOTOR series as the main inspiration.)
(I admit I tried Falcon's round cockpit in design phase to give the ship more of a Star Wars feel however, a)It seemed like cheating b)it did not look right on the design,)

Trying to match the basic design to these blueprints with proportions that make sense was the real trick. thanks for the support

Yeah, it has only one major flaw that I realised after I designed the interior. it has no space for traditional landing gear (DOH!) so I Δ±magined they were located inside the starboard s-foil & the tie wing on the port side acts as the second gear with 2 more located sublight engine fuselages

that's why my friend who owned this ship in my RP campaign had a navigator and mechanic droid around

Very cool. Though your cockpit has seats for four, with the crew's quarters having beds for two.

the skeleton crew is 1 with an ideal crew of 2. The back two seats in the cockpit is for internal systems checks and astrogation seat which is only occupied when charting maps & navigation. Besides even there are 4 crew long trips require 2 shifts of 2 crew resting or on duty alternately. (Even Millenium falcon had 4 seats though she had a crew of 2 right?

Ah of course. I figured so, you wouldn't miss a detail like that! Though, for long trips, most likely through hyperspace, you probably wouldn't need to be near the cockpit all the time anyways. Thats what navigator units are for.
