The painting is excellent, it's the style of ships I don't like.

With the Newman class battleship it's the wings and fins, they lack elegance, too square and right angled to the hull. You don't need wings in space, but if your going to have them they should be shaped like wings. With the 'GZG NSL BDN' it's more of practicality issue, just looks IMHO like the aft-section would break away from the front when those engines fired.  

My favourite are the Star Trek ships (of course) and the Sorylian battleship, nice big solid-looking ship!

I'm thinking of modelling Red Dwarf and some HHGTG ships if I ever get round to doing some starships myself
