the prominent dragon head... - cause i am lazy, it is of course the same head used on the emperors personal cruiser ( just larger ) - it is just a traditional chinese dragonhead. - and it does fit the ship.
it is also FLish for what its worth. take a look into the bar interiors around sirius and the hangars.... not rarely you d see sculptors much larger than most ships as decorations. - gargoyles in bretonia, eagles in liberty, gothic ornaments in rheinland and funny masks in kusari.
about such a ship...
it should be made crystal clear that it must NOT be used by unlawfuls... besides, hardly any unlawful can afford to maintain such a ship. - kishiro might, cause they ll pay for prestige as well... but hogosha flying around with a ship ornamented like a kingly palace ( and cause of that costing four times the maintenance ...? ) - i don t think so.
the final model ( skinned ) will colour most of the ship in the typical bronze colour, the dragonhead in a rough iron ( grey ) and the rear of the ship ( storage tanks ) in the generic utility style.
