Generally speaking the Iconian style parts have a lot of simmiliar sloped and looking parts and the ship in your picture. The Altarian parts could help too. When i would design this ship i would use Thalan parts as well. For the middle side section, either Terran parts, or mech parts.
For the front down plate, the Slyne parts have some similiart parts. As a basic framework for the lower front section you could use Torian number 7 and 9 parts. (When you filter all the available parts by "Style") Mech part 18 and mech part 21 could be used too for the outer plating.

I recently played 2 games with the Intrigue DLC installed. I did not like. When I had more planets than what my government would allow, I kept getting notified every turn that I should change things. I did not see anything I could do to turn it off.
Some governments only work for certain ideologies. It does not say this in the tech tree, so if you see a government you like, be certain to double the government window to check what it requires before getting your hopes up.
When you create a commonwealth, you can't make any changes to them after you create them. You can't remove planets from them and have them join your empire. You can't give them more planets. I found that while they start out with your tech, their tech develops independently of your own. I even had an enemy empire surrender to one of my commonwealths. I found that they can build trade ships and constructors. This suggests that they might compete with you for resources.
I did like the galactic market. You can buy resources for about 1000 credits, and sell them for about 200 credits. They had galactic resources all in one place. You don't have to shop around with other civilizations for what you need. You don't have to wait x turns before you can make another deal with them. Though, you seem to need to wait for a civilization to sell some resource to the market before you can buy it, so it might be difficult to get a resource early in a game.

I mentioned this in the discord, but I'd really like to see a faction the uses concave structuring, something we haven't seen a lot of in GC parts. I'm a big fan of the Armored Core series, and they take advantage of this style a lot. These aren't ships, but most mechs derive from turning a jet fighter into a humanoid so I figure they're similar enough.
On the face of things, BattleTech might look like XCOM with giant robots, but those big metal suits aren't just there for show - they're what makes BattleTech so distinctive. A big ol' mech doesn't much care when it loses an arm, for instance - it just keeps on fighting. Working out how to down these walking tanks both a) permanently and b) in a way that preserves enough of it to take home and use as parts to build a new one yourself is the key strategy here. You'll have to juggle positioning, range, ammo and heat as these 80-ton titans clash in tense turn-based battles, while the meta-game involves steadily collecting enough salvage to raise yourself an army of building-sized steel Pokémon.
Paradox often sticks with its games for the long-haul, as we've also seen with the likes of Crusader Kings II and Cities: Skylines, but so far it's Stellaris that has benefited most from this approach. Whole systems have been ripped out and replaced in the name of slicker and smarter galactic empire-building. Its tussle of space civilizations is now vast and strange, all gene wars and synth rebellions alongside the more expected likes of imperialistic aliens, and it's a whole lot better set up for pacifistic play than it once was too. This empire has very much struck back.
His transformation occurred over a period of time; Grievous gradually traded[27] many of his biological parts for upgraded mechanical ones[5] to become a murderous cyborg with one obsession: killing Jedi.[29] By the time of his choice, Grievous had grown psychotic and thus saw his enhancements as a logical development.[32] However, Grievous proved to be a volatile ally. As such, San Hill, Chairman of the InterGalactic Banking Clan, began conspiring with his Separatist allies, including Archduke Poggle the Lesser of Geonosis and Dooku, to destroy Grievous and rebuild him into a super-cyborg of servitude.[33] Grievous' shuttle was critically sabotaged,[14] nearly killing him[22] and destroying most[34] of what remained[19] of his original body.[34] Rumors would later be spread that the crash was orchestrated by Dooku.[35]
A modified EV-series medical droid, named EV-A4-D, was given to Grievous by the Separatists to serve as a surgeon, doctor, and cybernetics repair mechanic.[44] With access to all of Grievous's medical and cybernetic records and a significantly increased intelligence, the fairly caustic and slightly sadistic droid became the ideal foil for him, as well as his doctor,[32] who was one of the galaxy's few individuals who knew his master's secrets.[44] A4-D always kept spares for the general and helped in the design and installation of the additional parts his master demanded. In this regard, his claim that he chose his own modifications could be considered true from a particular twisted perspective[7] in addition to the literal perspective of those he did chose.[6] He also owned an enormous roggwart named Gor,[19] whom he had enhanced by EV-A4-D with whip-like cybernetic limbs attached to his back and an exoskeleton attached to his body. Gor, like his master, was given a chest plate to protect his vital organs and a helmet to protect his braincase.[45] Grievous showed Gor some affection,[7] and during his numerous absences, Gor was tended after by his medical droid.[45]
Grievous then found Skywalker's apprentice, Ahsoka Tano, along with Captain Rex and a squad of clone troopers. He engaged them in combat and managed to kill all of the clones except Rex and "Denal," who were saved by the timely intervention of Ahsoka. As she confronted the general, she was quickly overpowered[93] but successfully avoided his attacks, knowing that she couldn't defeat him on her own[11] and was forced to retreat further into the station, with Grievous and R3 giving chase after her. While searching one of abandoned spare parts rooms for her, Grievous was informed that Skywalker had gone to rescue his astromech. He then had R3 go to the hangar and ensure that Skywalker would not escape. Hanging from the ceiling, Grievous found Tano and clamped a metal hand around the Padawan's throat, examining her fallen lightsaber with his free hand.[93]
