that M frigate drawing seems to be missing some overhang shadings (I spotted on underneath the aft STIR platform on the mast, haven't searched for others) and the overhang shading that is there seems very light, especially compared with the one under the bridge wings which extend IIRC about the same distance from the superstructure.

The ladder on the forward superstructure is at an angle, I would personally make it 3 pixels wide (from the 4 it is now) to show you are looking at it somewhat from an angle

Other then that, I would only modify the hull shading to something more accurate (I seem to remember I said I would help you with that, pm/discord me when you are ready for that ;) ), and then it looks great!
