I really struggle to get a feel for many of these ships. The side views rarely give us much eye candy and the backgrounds are always rather light. Your earlier note pointed out that these would fill an obscure niche, but I cannot quite work it out.
Would it be worth spending more time on fleshing some of these backgrouds out and opting for better imagery (perhaps trawling some fan made orthographic views? Then these would spring to life more.
I dont really know about anyone else but if I dont have a decent visual or great background I find it difficult to worry about the stats, they come second to the bit about WHY I woul use the starship?
