Overall nice design, though the neck connecting the head to the body could be made a bit thicker.
The engines could use some slight bulking up as well, though I think that might me my preference more than anything else.

Your first one is not that good theres no shading and the front of the ship doesn't go whit the rest of the ship .
The second one is much better realy much better then the first one ,yet again no shading whit your second ship.

I think stick whit the second one,its better (for me).

Anna Mod Edit: Removed obnoxious bold colouring. There is no reason to make your entire post red and bold. Bolding and colouring of text should be used for emphasis or to add flavour to specific portions of a post. Just making your whole post red and bold is unnecessary. Also, make your sig less obnoxious.

If the second picture is a demonstration of your progress, then you're not doing bad at all. Some tips:
  1. Use shading to add depth. This would definitely improve your ship, I think. Right now it looks very messy and flat because all the sections are the same colour. Use darker shades for sections that are lower, and lighter shades for sections that are higher. This will also prevent your weapons from being indistinguishable from the hull itself.
  2. Add some colours. Not bright, obnoxious colours, though. On grey ships like this, it's best to use faded-looking sections for colour. Brightly coloured doodads can work well too, however.
