Notably missing is anything from the new Battlestar Galactica.

I’d also like to see some from Schlock Mercenary. You’d get quite a range, from Ennesby to a bu’uthandi.

I’d like to see Red Dwarf and the Planetary Express ship from Futurama.

I’ve been aware of that site for some time; I wouldn’t be surprised if it predates the new series.

Edit: it does look like he’s added a few ships (mostly from video games) over the past few years, but not very many.
