	I agree, but the hammerheads still aren't exactly there. I've
attached a picture of my book which shows a schematic of HMS
Minotaur. Of course, it's not exactly the same class of ship so the
scale will be wrong, but the general shape and proportions of the
hammerheads wrt the hull is probably quite similar for all classes.

	Have you put the chase armament in yet? There's supposed to be a
spinal laser and two missile tubes but we can't see them from this
angle.

	Keep up the good work.
