The X-Wing from Star Wars is also a beautiful ship. It's usually the first thing I associate with "futuristic spacecraft".
I love how the B-wing looks like two completely different ships depending how you look at it. I especially like it when viewed in a horizontal perspective.
These ships from Destiny.
And the Normandy SR-1 from Mass Effect.
The Explorers
Seriously, the whole bubble thing was cool as hell.
Two pages and no Star Trek ships?!?!?
Someone recolored the M50 to look similar to the Swordfish II.Swordfish II from Cowboy Bebop
You kind of have to see this baby in action to fully grasp it, but I fucking love it.

Earthforce Omega Class Destroyer from Babylon 5
I have a soft spot for utilitarian designs.
The best. It's even better in its "cruising" shape. Out of all media, this is the ship I fantasized about flying around in the most.
Loved missions in these in tie fighter
A classic, but still my all time favourite.
I always found this whale probe, or whatever it was, to be unsettling. In a monolithic sort of way.
This. My first true love the space shuttles were so cool and looked so futuristic for something that came out in the 80's.Blah, fiction is so lame. Let's get some real space ships up in dis bitch! /semi sarcasm
Still my favourite, even for all of it's, admittedly many, shortcomings.
All the star wars ships really, at least the originals, were great.
The Kushan corvette class ship designs from Homeworld always struck me as brutish, functional workhorses and I love them for it. No elegance to their shape, just "cram as much armor and firepower into as small a space as possible."
My pick - Homeworld
It became the only ship I used.
