Yeah, that's a great way of achieving that nice, uninteresting, generic, cylindrical design common to most space ships built in BL.
Alternatively, try building from the inside out; create interesting rooms of whatever size and configuration you desire, then link them up and wrap it up in a "shell" to keep it safe on those long space journeys.

I start with the engines.

Make an exoskeleton of the ship first? Draw it out? Small scale model? I dunno.

Scale models are good, especially with Tophius' bricks.
Build the underside first so you don't get a weird looking ship(saying from experience)
