Possibly the most obscure Star Trek Ship?

I got tired of waiting for someone to make a 3d model that I could print out, so I decided to use some of the scraps I had to put it together.
I'm not going for 100% screen accurate cause that's way out of my league and there's only so many pictures of the studio model.
I'm using the left over bits from a Futura Phoenix model as one of the modules (I used the other parts to make a different thing.) A couple of parts from a Thunderbird 3. A bit from a cutway of the Bell X-1. There's even a deflector dish from an Enterprise kit.
The cockpit part needs to be mostly scratch built however:
The base is a part of a Yamato kit just to help me with sizing and the bottom curve. The rest just get stacked and glued.
I started with the main part of the cockpit. I'm using it as an oppertunity to practice my scratch building and I tried to get it as symetrical and smooth as I could.
Then I build out the ear muff pieces.
That's all for the first weekend on this one.
I'm looking forward to getting to greeble and paint this one.
