To my untrained eye it looks like the bottom edge of the Oval windows is missing, like it's 2 round ones with the hull cut out and the "outer rim" of the window wasn't reconstructed?  Kind of like marking 2 circles and drilling 2 holes in the center of each circle(leaving a ring around the hole) and using something to chop out the center part, but not putting the same outline on the new edges?  Possibly a strange glare effect of the shot and it's really there? 

Anyways its looking great.  I like the NX bussards on it.  It would have been cool to see the season 5 configuration in production.

I think you need to make the bridge module more pronounced.  The Oberth is pretty small, like 4 decks in the saucer, so the size of the bridge should probably be scaled up.

Like everything else in the TNG world ships are bigger then their TMP countaparts.

This ship will be roughly TMP connie size

She's a lover not a fighter so not many weapons but enough that she can fight off unwanted advances.

So something like 1 fore dorsal phaser, 1 fore photon tube and 1 aft photon tube? Sounds close to a science ship loadout to me.

Lookin' good!

That's a rather disturbing analogy, I don't even wanna know what you get up too when no one's looking. :p

Seriously though, it looks great!

Personally, I'd go with a saucer section on the Oberth upgrade model exactly half its current size. It looks odd/top-heavy/tacked-on at its current size.

That looks almost like a Steamrunner. Or an overweight Peregrine class Fighter. :)

Only those whose lives are brief can imagine that love is eternal. You should embrace that remarkable illusion. It may be the greatest gift your race has ever received."

I have kept the deflector housing shorter than the Defiants "Gonzo" nose

Kinda reminds me of one of the Defiant concept ships.  Pretty cool.
