The first thing that popped into my head was "It is a Ferengi...". The second thing was "...Teapot".

Very respectfully, I think it needs a little work. It needs some refinement to be placed on the same shelf as some of your other awesome shipsets.

Nice work indeed.
But I agree with some of the other comments that maybe lose some of the boxy look to it. Make it a bit more round and it will improve it by alot. When I first saw it first thing in my mind was ferengi as well. But as was said too the "horns" do attract alot of attention when you look at it.

But all in all very nice.

On one hand I would say it looks like a nice piece of polished wood, I would not change it. When taken in context there will be no mistake what just blew my BattleCruiser to shcreds.
I think they Look great the way they are which may mean they need to be changed.

I don't see wood -- I see rusted and worn metal. But you could try to mix up the texture a bit.

Don't like the shape. Too compact and bulbous, I like ships more graceful.

But hey, a very cool job. I'm trying to make my first shipset, boy, is that ever dull. I got an escort hull and flags done and that's it. Boring.

KNowing DOGA a bit, I'd say nicely done (graceful curves are a real B***h to pull off). Not knowing what a Ferengi ship looks like...I'll leave that part to others...maybe the neck a bit longer?

I like it and it could be a Ferengi ship for me too.

Nice Ferengi ship, have to agree though that it's a bit too boxy and stylized, not really your usual style (more like Captain Kwok's actually!)
