Backstory (for fun)
As decades passed, new generations of UGTO ship planners replaced those that designed currently in-service ships. While working on a replacement for aging ST-106 command dreadnoughts, junior designers jokingly drew flying sailboats sharks, and even lobster. One designer took the idea to heart, and drafted a ship that looked, oddly, like a fish.
The front looks a little polygonal for now, I'll need to fix it later.
It's supposed to look like a big, phallic fish. 
I'm not sure this would actually fit in with all the other UGTO ships though. :/

I agree, the ship looks more like a patched up EAD.
would be perfect as a pirate ship used by the great pirate captains IMO.
great work on it

It should be a modified UGTO dreadnaught that was hijacked by some admiral who is completely insane and thinks he is a shark.

yea... it dosent have that solid look that the UGTO ships carry with them. but that ship would be perfect for a pirate or even a mir ship. still, really great design.

I think, the tail has to much polys. Maybe it is better decrease the amount of small stuff on the tail and put this to the texture. The bump mapping will do the rest.

The central section needs to be more visibly armored, like the rest of the UGTO fleet.
Otherwise I think this is a great concept model.
