Well... roughly something like this:

Escorts: up to about 4cm long, provided they're longish rather than
stubby
Cruisers: 4 - 7 cm (...except my Shadowhunters, but the 'tail' doesn't
count)
Capitals: Bigger still.

Note that these figures are _very_ rough and depend quite a lot on the 
shape of the ship; most of my light cruisers are about as long as the 
larger DDs, but fatter, while several of my heavy cruisers are as long
as 
some of my capitals but thinner.
