Holy cow, that looks amazing Paldav. Hell of a lot of details going on yet it does not look overcrowded think you got it perfect.
Be good to see some wires if you get a chance.

Keep up the great work

I agree, very very nice looking model paldav. Good job!

Ahh the medical frigate......nice job. Yeah theres not much ref on it at all, even the blue prints stuff is wrong too. Perhaps some screen grabs from Empire would help, i'll try and post later

Had to use slight artistic interpretation but kept as close i could, the main vague area was just behind the main front bit, also its wrong were it connects to the engine so that and the spine is next.
