Description
+UPDATE 2+Oh em geeeee, after about almost 100h of total working time it's finally done. I am veeeeeeery proud of this. Some people I've shown this thought it was a screenshot out of a videogame lol I guess that means something.
+UPDATE+
So.... This comes very close to how this image will be seen in my portfolio. Quite changed as you can see. Now the working time is possibly over 60h, including all those shiny icons and stuff. It was worth it though.

FINALLY DONE
still need to do some tweaking here and there but all in all I consider this as finished. Will be part of my portfolio. Second space ship design ever, yay!
SAI and Photoshop CS5, mostly vector work, ~20h *dies*

Fonts are a little hard to read. The concept seems cool, but personally, I think you're bogging down your central focus with a lot of added texture and pizzaz. That being said, I'm no artist.
The Orion looks really cool! I want one.

Thank you for the comment! If you click download you can see the fullsize image (unless the font itself is hard to read)
I intended to focus on the entire presentation rather than just the concept or just the way it is presented. So if that's what you meant, it's intended. I also rushed it as I had a deadline.

I thought it was a fighter though, you havn't quite captured the scale, but that doesn't in any way negate the excessive awesomesauce this oozes.

Looks like really professional sci fi art. I can totally see this as artwork for a book or game, or something. Excellent work.

Not intended to be able to maneuver at high speed within a planetary atmosphere I see. Move too quickly inside an atmosphere and the wind would force the nose down due to the shape of the upper hull.
Does it have shuttles to ferry passengers and crew to and from the planetary surfaces while it remains in orbit or does it merely move slowly through the atmosphere during takeoffs and landings?

That is exactly why it's a space ship and not an aircraft. It's intended for stellar transportation only, so there's no need for installments that enable secure movement into a planet's atmosphere. Main purpose of the wings is tanks for fuel. The blue toned part of the ship is a very heavy armor for protection of the sensitive engine life-sustaining facilities. The ship would be also way too heavy and large to be able to fly in an atmosphere anyways. If you took a closer look at the image you maybe would have noticed that.
The vertical wing/keel/rudder may be confusing, but its meant to convert side force into a forward force when travelling through gaseous matter or fields of small particles.
There's enough docks for small and medium spacecrafts so moving passengers and cargo shouldn't be a problem.

That looks very sharp! Those vectors must have taken a while...
It's a rather neat space ship design, too.
The space scene in the back looks quite good, as well.
