The trouble for me with most of the sci fi space games Ive seen...is they always have cartoony super colouful spaceships....always puts me off as soon as I see them.....I do however like the look of this mod...they look the right colour....they look like they spend long time in space not something that a graffeti artist has had ago at...the more realisitic looking the better....though to me at the moment it would be hard to tell the different types apart at a quick glance...not sure how you fix that and still keep them looking realistic.
Just taking another look maybe they could have different coloured lights instaed of all of them having red lights?
Saddly the light color comes from 'code', so if you choose blue as your empire color, then the lights are blue too. Otherwise it would have been nice thing :) I have to try if I can somehow 'control' the size of the ships by scaling the art smaller in parts. When I get more ships done, I'll try it out too.

Not telling you how to do your stuff but have you considered 2 different color schemes for military versus civilian ships?
Say Military stay with the standard gunship grey base color, and have the civilian ships have something like a white and blue color scheme...would make them much more easy to identify.
Oh, critic is very welcome and its a good idea. I had similiar in mind, but its probably better to tag all civilians to certain look and all warships to another, and still give the player option to some color schemes on 'special' builds :)
