What are your favorite spaceships from science fiction shows, movies, games, comics, anime or anything?
The Swordfish from Cowboy Bebop is probably my top favorite. I like the idea of small compact ships meant for a single person and going fast.
For that same reason I love the Razorback from The Expanse. Except the engine to ship ratio in this universe probably makes more sense realistically. The cockpit 360 swivel system is also really clever.
The Outlaw Star from.. Outlaw Star is not a small ship. I just like it because it looks cool despite its goofy unrealistic grapple arms that hold weapons.

There are so many awesome ships, but my favorites by far are from Star Wars
Ebon Hawk from KOTOR:
Stinger Mantis from Fallen Order:
I think the reason I really love both if these is how they just feel intimate and cozy, like proper homes in space.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of bigger ships as well. For example, I love the Normandy from Mass Effect. But in the end, nothing can beat small crew ships for me.

Yes! I love these two for the same reason, along with Serenity from Firefly.

What about the first Normandy, from ME1? That one was a lot smaller, and gives me similar vibes, even though it did have a much larger, less personal crew.
The SR-1 was definitely smaller, but to me it didn't feel intimate at all. Felt like a workplace, not a home. But it's an awesome ship for sure.
Yeah that's fair. With the Ebon Hawk, Stinger Mantis, Serenity, and even something like The Bebop, the whole crew is the people you grow to know and love; there's a lot of "redshirts" and nobodies on the Normandies. I think you really nailed it with "workplace, not a home".
