I wasn't aware that anyone disliked those ships.
The only ships I dislike are the one that's half Voyager and half Maquis ship and the one that looks like an Excelsior whose engineering section has been shoved forward of the saucer (I never learnt the names of those kitbash ones).

Gak. The Sabre is pretty nifty, but the Steamrunner just annoys me no end. Daedalus rocks, and I'd lead a march on Paramount to get a proper-looking one on Enterprise at some point.
But, then, I'd also have them re-do the CGI for some of DS9's battles to add ships like New Orleans, so what do I know?

Actually, I finally got my hands on the three-piece ship set for Voyager and I'm tackling making the Yeager look good. I've busted out the sheet styrene, scribing tools, and epoxy putty. I'll keep you posted, but I'm more into my Elkins "cleanup" right now.

Peregrinus: Actually, to make the Yeager, you need the individual sets of Voyager and the Maquis ship. The three-piece set has everything in proportion to each other. The individual sets are out of scale which gives you a larger Maquis ship as the Yeager's butt.

Soundeffect's Yeager rocks better than anyone else's in the larger scale and mine in the small one.
Next you must challenge yourself to build the Elkins. And post pics, of course.

You're right that the large versions of the Voyager and Maquis ships allow you to kitbash a proper Yeager, but the set of 3 are NOT in scale with each other by a long shot!
In fact, the small Maquis ship from the set of 3 is almost in scale with the large Monogram Voyager.

Wait a tick... there's no shuttlebay on the Yeager.
