USS Wildcat 3D Model

I've started another ship commission for @The Librarian, the USS Stormcrow. I've decided to carry on using this thread rather than create another for each separate ship.

Here's the overall design schematic:

And here's the start of the 3D model. Per our conversation, a lot of the details have been reworked since the schematic was made, and the ship has a more Discovery feel to it:

The biggest Discovery influence visible so far is the shape of the secondary hulls, with the angular pylons thick enough to house a full deck. It's also got a similar layered look from a lot of angles, only with three tiers instead of two. It was intended to be of similar size too, although it was designed before we had a firm Discovery size or had really seen the various other Starfleet ships that appeared in 1x02. It came pretty close to several of them, though. I threw together a comparison based on the Eaglemoss chart.

In order: Hoover, Wildcat (mine), Crossfield, Constitution, Cardenas, Stormcrow, Shepard, Walker. The Nimitz is pretty close too but my attempts to trace it out didn't turn out well. The saucer diameter just slightly smaller than that of the Kelvin as well.
