Thanks a lot for asking.

It's a commision work for the Tabletop wargame 'Silent Death' - the Homebrew flagship of House Colos.

Directly from the Book: Designed to eventually replace the Fletcher class destroyer in Colosian ser-vice, the Totenkopf (“Death’s Head”) class of battle destroyer is the latest escort to enter service with House Colos. A brutish
and inelegant design, the Totenkopf is well named in view of its deadly weapons fit [...] covering the ship’s flanks make the Totenkopf a dread-ful opponent.
[...] the Totenkopf is a brawler meant to wade into a fight dealing out destruction in every direction. With such daunting cannon batteries at its dis-posal, the mere presence of a Totenkopf in a Colosian formation is often enough to in-exorably drive back any opposition.


The original Illustrations looked a bit like the 'white star' ships from Babylon 5, what's not my (and the creators) idea of "inelegant and brutish", also no actual miniature was ever made.

Speaking of which.. the 3D-printed Miniature is available here.
