The 36x36 mini is too small for a 3D pic - it would even been harder to tell between the different ships than a top down picture. However, most of my ships should be easily differentiated from each other (size, shape, etc...), so it shouldn't be so hard to recognize them...
What's interesting is that most custom-made races have bases and troops as 3-D style pictures, even in 36x36 mini size. The ships however are usually in the top-down view.
Are ships harder to do because they have to rotate to indicate direction, or because there are so many sizes, and all of them have to look different?
