I'll do that and some other small corrections when I draw the top-view this weekend.
Besides that, do you think the ship has the same location for the impulse engines as the Ambassador?

Small update;
I'm currently working on her saucer, and if you look closely at the Jein-picture, you can see something that looks like a row of lifeboats in front of the dome. I added four and another four in pairs of two behind the dome.
That made me think about another 'creative correction'; should I add some to the saucer, too? If there are only few lifeboats, does this mean they are only for the senior staff? If there are no lifeboats, why does the Ambassador have them? There should be more, or the ship is a suicide trap.
What do you think?

Forget that, I took another close look at the saucer and it seems there are lifeboat hatches. Anyway, I'll include them.

Looks pretty good, but the contours of that bridge module are a little...irregular. A bit choppy.
But at least you've attempted what no one else has!

I know. I had some trouble with that saucer. . Sice the whole bridge dome is somehow irregular in its shape, you can't use circles and other easy geometrical forms to draw it. The thing actually is completely hand-drawn (I think I tried at least 5 times ).
