One of the nice things about Franz Joseph's designs is that there's a big element of kitbashing to them. Hence it's pretty easy to turn a Saladin class destroyer into a Ptolemy class tug :

You figured out the hull lines.

Why is the hull yellow though?

Why not? There's no real consensus I can find on what colour the TOS ships should be. They're not white, and grey looks wrong to my eyes. Some sort of off-white seems right, which is what I tried for with this. Does look a bit yellow though, yeah. Easy enough to change it, though.

Yellow just seems off to me.

We should put these on the site we currently have no pictures for these classes.

On a vaguely similar line, have you got any plans for a Coalition DITL?

Actually there is one, it's just not online. :)

Although it's very much smaller than DITL. Just pages with the various ships and things on it.

You should do a version with and without the pods.
