They're missing the raked smoke stacks that were the signature visual in the previous models. So to me, these don't look like Prussian ships.

They look cool to me, but way too sci-fi-y. A more steampunk-y look would fit the setting better, imo.

Both Stuart and Rich have stated they want a more fantasy rather than steampunk look, and the other models attest that so I imagine while it is an aesthetic leap from DWars classic it won't stand out from the aesthetic of the full new range and the wider post WWX setting.
