This is my personal favorite and incorporates  the most influence from the Virgin Space ship.

Cool! Looks like 1950s retro to me (a great time for some classic sci fi). BTW, I'm admitting to my ignorance here, but what is the Virgin Space Ship?

I am glad you asked that. Check out this thread.   http://straitstimes.asia1.com.sg/world/story/0,4386,275102,00.html?

The 1st ship is going to be named the VSS Enterprise. Richard Branson is the owner of Virgin Group Ltd.  I saw a pic of a model of it in the paper. Surprisely it does have a retro look to it in my opinion. I will keep looking to find a pic of it, or if you find 1 go ahead and post it.

hmm I was thinking weapons pod but could be a second hull in a jiffy :)

Just reposting 1 I already showed as I added windows, some warp textures and thingys(for lack of a better term) on the nose.
