Oh, how I can't stand the cliche rocket form anymore...
No offense, awesome art piece and really it's just common misconceptions (or lack of care for science - but I'm the Twilight Sparkle that'll say: "The stars on my belt must be technically accurate..."), and you really did an awesome job with all the scenery, smoke, outstanding! And your shading style is awesome! And even with the rocket, you really made it look like metal!
But a crash ain't happenin' like that, and ain't no spaceship lookin' like that, either

You used rivets when the design clearly called for friction stir welding, the window would be sapphire, not glass, the porthole would look very different, if this thing survived re-entry, then it's gotta have a heat shield of some kind or be coated with a TPS, but I'm not seeing any RCC, HRSI, or ablative material, and it seems to have nothing as far as mass ratio is concerned, I should be seeing some RCS units on the sides but I'm not, it begins to taper back which would imply it's not a capsule which really doesn't make sense for an RV, unless it's a reusable SSTO, in which case the mass ratio is way off, and if it's all in one piece then I should be seeing retrorockets and/or a parachute.
And the overall design is reminiscent of pret-a-porter, and not true French haute couture.
But uhm, you know, whatever you want to do is fine...
FLEE FOR YOUR LIVES!
