It's a nice shipset. Keep it. If you are concerned about 'authenticity' then make another set based on the SFB images. You could call the SFB based set Tholians and call your first set something else, and give them a backstory about being the race from another galaxy come to get the Tholians!

Apparently the 'backstory' for the Tholians is that they are refugees from another galaxy where they had an empire and enslaved other races. When the plebes rebelled and started to slaughter the rulers, some of them gathered up some ships and fled. And arrived here.
