Mighty impressive work. Being able to fit actual minis is an especially nice touch.
I really only have a couple of nitpicks; there are some abrupt angles near the nose that aren't present on the artwork (your model's nose is fairly straight at first, then suddenly juts out to the side; the concept art has a more gradual transition), and there seem to be some out-of-place colors scattered over the model (blue bricks near the nose, white hinge over right rear bay door, yellow gear on the turret, and of course the Snowspeeder nose slope to the right of the bridge; there are also some asimmetrically placed gray and black plates near the bridge), but I suspect these may be the result of a parts shortage. They barely detract from the overall look, anyway.
If you ever get the chance to use this thing in a tabletop game, go for it. The looks on the other player's faces should be priceless.

I just finished it and took some pictures of it with a lance of my mechs!

It was tough working straight from the picture, but I believe I got fairly darn close to the art. It can fit 4 mechs but most mech models overstep their hexes so they don't fit properly... but this would still make a great centerpiece for a Battletech skrimish. xD
*EDIT* Original Post:
Slowly been working on a Leopard dropship based off the MWO concept art. I wanted to keep it a reasonable size so most of my mech mini's have a hard time fitting in, especially heavy mechs as most of them have limbs that go outside their hexes.
(The Red/Blue bricks in the nose are temporary and/or going to be hidden by gray/black bricks later.)

Nice! With the minis, you have a nice sense of scale there.
Very cool!
